Brian's Facebook page said that on Wednesday we'll know the exact locations and showtimes for the movie.

One of my local theaters (Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, PA area) just posted showtimes. I just bought my tickets for Friday night online; I could not be more stoked!

A little disappointed this isn't getting a wider release than it is.  It has named actors and seems to be getting really good reviews.  Guess I will wait till the second week and see if it gets closer to where I live.

This movie is getting a ton of press coverage it seems. Articles and reviews seem to be popping up all over. Pretty freakin' cool since this is not a huge release. Most buzz also seems to be very positive.

I started watching that latest clip with Pohlad though and had to stop it because it's going to spoil the movie for me if I keep seeing so much of it. No more visiting this thread for me until I see the film.

Moviefone now lists 53 theaters in the US. Almost 400 more are supposed to be added this week, so it might be showing closer than you think on Friday.

I hope so.  Right now, it's not listed for any of the theaters within ten miles of where I live, of which there are quite a few.

I am surprised that it is only at one theater in the whole Philly metro area. Close to an hour away by car from where I live. I thought it would have a bigger release than this? Hopefully, it shows up at a few more places with tomorrow's listings.

I keep hearing about the movie. A couple of friends (who know I'm a fan) have asked me about it, and I keep hearing about it through various things. Today I was in my car listening to NPR and some sponsor was either the movie studio or the production company or something. But at any rate, it was, "featuring 'Love and Mercy,' the story of Beach Boys founder Brian Wilson." Pretty great. And of course Paul Dano et al are making the talk-show rounds.

The theater I found in Columbus (the Drexel) that will be showing it (there may be more, will find out tomorrow) finally posted the showtimes on their site today.  It looks like they are devoting 2 of their 3 screens to this film alone.  At least for the first week it looks as though the film will be playing almost once an hour.  I'm impressed, to say the least.

In a just published Consequence of Sound interview with Bill Pohlad, he was asked if he was going to release a soundtrack of the score from Love & Mercy, and he said "We are. We're working on it right now.... and it should be out soon after the film." This is the most definitive response I have heard so far about a soundtrack. I wonder if "soon after the film" means soon after it's released in theaters, or soon after the dvd/blu-ray release? Either way, this is great news!

The COS interview is quite good.  Thanks for the head's up.

I'm by no means an expert but some of the more successful independent films in recent years have done phased roll outs.  EX MACHINA did this earlier in the year.  Several hundred theaters and then building weeks later to a more "wide" release.

It's probably smart, that way you don't get crushed at the multiplex by an Avenger or an Ant Man.

Got my reserved seats for Friday night at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, the coolest place to see movies anywhere. It's also showing at the Violet Crown, another theater that features food and drinks along with your movie. I'd expect it to be in at least one or two other theaters in Austin, but the others haven't announced lineups for the weekend yet.

It looks like, at least in some areas, it's hitting more of the "art house" type of venues for this first week. In my area, it's playing in a couple of theaters that play stuff outside of the typical blockbusters. Not full-on indie-only theaters or anything, but smaller multiplexes that just have a slant towards the more indie-type pieces.

This move ain't hitting #1 at the box office, nor would I imagine do any of the people involved in the film assume it will. It isn't that kind of movie. I'm sure they hope it does well and expands in its second week. With good reviews and publicity, the thing could well turn a nice profit even just hovering in the top 5 or 10 of films, as I would assume it was a relatively low-budget affair.

Cool photo from Love & Mercy's Instagram:



Holy sh*t, looks like Brian's trying to decide whether the 'vibes are right', and Van Dyke's about to bolt the scene.

Montgomery Cinemas -    Standard  1:50pm   4:30  7:10   9:50

ArtsQuest Center at SteelStacks - Standard  1:00pm  4:00  7:00  8:00

Fandango has five  listings:   http://www.fandango.com/love26mercy_181116/movietimes?location=Philadelphia,%20PA

( It's showing at three Wehrenberg theatres in the St Louis Mo area, plus the Landmark Tivoli and Frontenac )

Thanks Chris! A couple of these theaters showed where I checked (on Moviefone), but all of these are even further away than Downtown Philly. Even the closest theater in New Jersey is an hour's ride north. I have 4 multiplexes within 10 mins of my house and not a one is showing the movie.

Just checked again, and it is playing at the Ritz in Voorhees, NJ which is about 5 miles away. Wasn't listed earlier this afternoon. Hopefully, I'll see it this weekend.
