Letter: Why must we travel to Baltimore, D.C. to see quality films?

It is always disappointing to read rave reviews of films which garner three and four stars, only to learn that — as usual — none of these films will be shown in Columbia's multiplexes. One must travel either to Baltimore or D.C. to see these films. Is sex-and-violence the only thing that appeals to Columbians?

I note that one of the multiplexes allots a couple hours once a month for the Metropolitan Opera. I wonder if one of our multiplexes could be persuaded to do the same thing for indie films?
