I was in a movie theater in Kuwait watching I think I was called "Cliffhanger" when it came out staring SS. I remarked how shitty the picture was on the screen. Kinda' looked a little out of focus. About 10 minutes into the picture somebody got up on screen and causesd a big shadow as they moved down out of the picture. Happened a couple of more times during the move.

Somebody had set up a video recorder in the back of another movie house and taped the movie. That's the "intellectual property rights don't always apply in poor counties" bit. Not that Kuwait is a poor county.
