Otherwise they'd just stay home, buy DVDs or download movies. But if there were only big budget movies it would be impossible for the film industry to survive.

The theatre chains have to have the vision to realize the need to support smaller films for the growth of the domestic film industry.

I know much better methods of providing a minimum for everybody.
