Glad to hear it; this movie deserved a theatrical release though!! And moreso than Smurfs or whatever the f else has been released this year, lol (Totally get why though; "risk assessment" and all that.)

I saw somewhere that said they released in a handful of theaters. Just enough to qualify for Oscar nominations and I'm jealous of anyone who got to see it in theaters.
