Also movie premiers look way more exciting when paparazzi take pictures of them

I live right down the street from the Westwood Fox Theater, which is one of those places in L.A. where they roll out the red carpet a few times a month and people gather around to spot the occasional star walking in to see the latest buddy dog/pig/cat-cop flick. After my first exam I was walking home and the crowds were huge because Benjamin Button was premiering. But rather than exciting it was mostly inconvenient because Brad Pitt was nowhere to be seen and there were tons of people standing on the sidewalk doing nothing or taking pictures of people taking pictures of other people who they probably mistook for someone who was famous.
