We can see something else... 82 INT. MULTIPLEX/THEATER - MINNESOTA - 1996 - DAY 82 A loud, explosive action scene from Broken Arrow with John Travolta and Christian Slater fills the screen.
Seated up close, their heads craned looking up at the screen, Julie and Betsy sit together and Lipsky monitors David’s reactions. David is an ideal spectator, totally engaged with a child-like guilelessness that Lipsky finds endearing.
DAVID:
Oh boy... oh wow, oh jeez...!
