Something That Really Pisses Me Off About New York

My favorite movie theater for seeing classic films in New York City is the Film Forum. My least favorite thing about the Forum? A-holes who chuckle every time the amount someone pays for rent or for their house is mentioned in an old movie. We get it, people. Things cost more now.

I went to see The Apartment with my buddy Russell this past summer, and I said, "Watch. Jack Lemmon's gonna say how much he pays for an Upper West Side apartment (about $90 a month) and everyone's gonna chuckle at the low amount." And I was right. Same thing happened last night at Annie Hall. Except Russell wasn't there. (I originally said he wasn't there because he had died, but he thinks I have secret killing powers, so I changed it.)
