I've been meaning to try the AMC in Leesburg anyway, so I may just look into seeing it here (if it's even there!).

I just checked and it is there (thanks for looking, Taltarzac725!). Also playing is Molly's Game, about which I hear good things. Since some pointed out how ridiculous it is to drive clear out there, I checked the distance. For me (I live at the south end of TV), it's about half an hour's drive. That happens to be about the same length of time it takes me to get up to Spanish Springs to go to the Rialto. And since I'm a MoviePass user, there's no cost difference. Guess I'll be braving leaving the bubble and giving them a try sometime soon.

We saw 'Darkest Hour' there (AMC Leesburg) yesterday. As I said in previous post- the seats are simply fabulous and a 350 pounder could be comfy they are so big. One downside is, for MoviePass goers - cannot (as far as I can tell) reserve seats beforehand - must go to the theater and go to app to purch tics then pay with MP card at the booth to reserve seats - easy with kiosk. The movie was very good but dark and slow-ish; I almost fell asleep in that darn soft recliner.... So - no more Rialto for us - will go to Leesburg for movies only shown at Rialto.
