- 80Film ThreatJason DelgadoFilm ThreatJason DelgadoWatching how it was a struggle to get people into the seats even before the pandemic and all the stress that Greg and Tish Laemmle endure is a little tough to watch at times, but Only in Theaters is essential viewing for every filmgoer.

But it’s well-intentioned empathy.
