The initiative was spearheaded by NATO’s new nonprofit Cinema Foundation to spark moviegoing. The box office roared back earlier this year but is in the midst of a late summer lull with little new product.
“We wanted to do something to celebrate moviegoing,” said Cinema Foundation president, and NATO EVP and general counsel, Jackie Brenneman. “We’re doing it by offering a ‘thank you’ to the moviegoers that made this summer happen, and by offering an extra enticement for those who haven’t made it back yet.”
