Time of the Sign

Overnight, Shashank Redemtion became Shawshank Redemption."

All it took was a new sign outside the Nugget Theater that's two-and-a-half times bigger than the 20-year-old mini-marquee, a perennial source of chuckles for its tortured abbreviations. Does everybody in town applaud the new sign? Well, would you expect everyone to applaud every movie the Nugget shows? Of course not. Some wag asked if the sign was going to advertise egg rolls and chop suey. From where we sit: two thumbs up.

A new landmarquee.
