Idiots’ Diary #21: This is Depressing
I'm still in LA and I talked to Greg Laemmle of the Laemmle Cinema and he's not very happy. Because of the lack of review for Idiots and Angels in the L.A. Times. The box office is way down, so Greg decided to pull the film after this Thursday. What a disaster! New York was such a big success and then coming out here, the mecca of animation of animation and because of no LA Times review to get yanked is very depressing.

Sorry to hear that!
I hope I&A has at least gotten qualifying runs in for Oscar nominations.
I was at the final screening, and it was pretty well attended. Such a shame that it didn't get the press it deserved, but there was spontaneous applause at the end of the movie, not a typical audience reaction for even Pixar.
In any case, I'll bet that L.A. audiences will get another chance to see it after Academy nominations come out.
That's awful...no way to treat a feature film and any artist. Depressing indeed!
