From the article:

When we went to our seats, the wait staff let us know that despite the fact that the previews were playing, we wouldn’t know until the movie actually started whether we could see the film or not. If it didn’t work, the screen would just turn black. Luckily, the film went through without a hitch.

      Yeah, and freighting, protecting and maintaining 30mm films in cans is a pain.

      And the fact that your access can vanish for no reason at any time.
