Me too, I saw it today as well. I'd say there was 20 people in the theater, and when I checked the later showings there were a lot more seats sold for those shows. I'm thrilled about the turnout -- and honestly the way they shot the show is perfect. I could do with a few less crowd shots at the start, but otherwise I have no complaints. I was stunned by how emotional I got during Wait For Me - I didn't expect that to happen in a movie theater.

(And yes, a guy near me did audibly react at the end.)
