If you've worked at a movie theater before, this short Coen Brothers film will resonate.

My own favorite conversation with a patron at the Grand went something like this:

"What time does A Prairie Home Companion start?"

"7:00."

"Is it a good movie?"

"It's great."

"Who is the companion?"

"I'm sorry?"

"The companion. Is it a prairie dog?"

"…"

"Like Little House on the Prairie?"

"No, A Prairie Home Companion is the name of a radio show."

"So it's not about prairie dogs?"

"No, it's about a radio program."

"Oh, well then I'm not interested, thank you."

"It's still really good!" (calling after her)
