An assload of people stood in line outside the AFI Silver Theatre Monday afternoon to score free tickets to a new flick.
By noon, the line to see Michael Moore’s new documentary, “Capitalism: A Love Story”, wriggled down Colesville Road. It then wrapped around the corner into the Downtown Silver Spring shopping center’s driveway along Georgia Avenue.
“They sold out within 17 minutes, and there were at least 250-plus people still in line very disappointed!” roving Penguin photographer DCDebbie reported via Twitter.
Theater management announced last week that the controversial director would appear at the advanced screening, which drops Monday at 8:00 p.m. The film opens in theaters nationwide Friday, Oct 2, 2009.

If you didn’t get a ticket after standing in line an hour+, come tonight and I’ll point out the douche-bags who cut in line in front of me & others. I got tix but knew others would get screwed over behind us — I took phone pics and am happy to point out the offenders. Seriously.
