You know what it is? It’s the fact that you get to go there really, really late at night sometimes and check out a flick that a more mainstream theatre would rather burn than show. It’s the fact that you get to stand in a line-up outside, just like in the good ol’ days, and freeze happily as the anticipation mounts. Last but not least, it’s the fact that you can spend an entire afternoon movie-watching at the Oxford and not feel like you’ve wasted your time. That’s what it is.
