The new-release indies seem to vaporize within just a few days, and the floors of the men’s bathrooms—if left unattended for long—have the potential to create new, quasi-aquatic lifeforms.

At this point, the AMC 16 has become an essential part of my L.A. moviegoing life. I’d give up every streaming-service subscription before I’d quit Stubs A-List.
