Carmike has grudgingly brought to town the year's most-talked-about motion picture, the freshly minted Oscar nominee, "Brokeback Mountain."
You'd think the cineplex would be happy to have a highly publicized and well-reviewed movie on one of its nine screens, but "Brokeback's" arrival was accompanied by an unusually tepid statement from management in Tuesday's paper. They wanted to make sure everyone knew this was definitely not a response to any local interest - only 50 people had asked about it.
Oh? How many hundreds contacted the theatre to request "The Hostel"?
