I went and saw Back to the Future in concert tonight with my dad. (For those of you who donāt know what that is, itās basically where you watch the movie in a concert hall. In this case, the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall in Portland while a live orchestra plays the score.) I saw Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince in concert a few years ago and loved it. Ever since then, itās been a dream of mine to see my favorite movie, Back to the Future, performed this way. So when I saw they were doing it in Portland, I immediately bought tickets for my dad and me. Anyways, we went tonight and honestly, the whole thing kind of pissed me off. First of all, the conductor of the orchestra said people were welcome to clap during the movie. Soā¦ people clapped at EVERYTHING. To the point where they clapped over some of the best parts of the score, and you couldnāt even hear it. Like, why are you even here if youāre going to clap over the music? It was so frustrating. At any regular BTTF screening, I have absolutely no problem with people clapping. But this was a concert, we were there to hear the orchestra. And you canāt hear it if youāre clapping over it. On top of that, we had these drunk jerks sitting behind us who were laughing and talking the entire time. It was SO ANNOYING. During intermission, my dad overheard them telling someone they had never seen the movie before, they were just bored, happened to be in the area, and bought their tickets at the door. So they literally came in, got drunk, and ruined the experience for everyone around them. It was just so frustrating, I had to rant. I actually took some audio recordings and clipped all the times the drunk lady laughed. Iāll add it if you want to hear how absolutely rude she was. Like, Iām glad more people are getting exposed to Back to the Future, but thereās no need to be that annoying.
