Movie Theatre Selling

We're on a little weekend getaway as I write this, enjoying time in our favorite place on earth...Morro Bay, California.

I went to catch a movie while the girls in our family trolled the shops.  Morro Bay has a great single-screen movie theatre.  I went to see "The Sentinel" starring Michael Douglas. 

This theatre is unique:

  • It's not affilliated with a large chain.  It' family owned.
  • The theatre owner, a woman in her early 60's, sells the tickets.  She smiled and chatted with each person coming in.
  • Tickets cost $6 (much less than the big chains).
  • A bottled water and some Red Vines cost me $3 (much less than the big chains).
  • The theatre seats reclined a little, and the arms were padded (much more comfortable than the big chains).
  • No sticky floors, no weird smells (unlike the big chains).

Seth Godin talks about "small" being the next "big".  I think that this type of theatre is what he's talking about.

Two thumbs up for the great little Bay Theatre in Morro Bay...stop by if you get the chance.
