We arrived at the Paramount at 12:45 for a 1:30 showing of Candy to find the line already heading in. This caused some confusion; typically lines aren’t let in until 15 minutes before start time. I’m guessing they needed to clear out the lobby somewhat as there were some pretty big crowds waiting for other films. We were probably violating some fire regulation or another.

Not that I’m complaining; sitting in a padded seat is better than standing in line.
