COMMENTARY: "10 The Loud House Deleted Scenes Nickelodeon Doesn't Want You To See", uploaded to @YouTube by @TheThingscom
In late 1979, the late great film critics Gene Siskel and @ebertchicago reviewed "In Search of Historic Jesus" by describing the method its distributor, Sunn Classic Pictures (later Taft International; now defunct) used to market its "documentaries". imdb.com/title/tt008014…
This method: rent the theater, increase the admission price, watch as the people go to see what Mr. Siskel would call "a cheap magic show", say in newspaper and TV ads (there was no such thing as the Internet then) that the film is playing for "one week only" for many weeks . . .
