I bought an ice cream between films. It melted. But was still tasty when I got around to eating it.
That is wonderful and entirely within the film's power. I'm so glad that's how you first saw it. I have never seen The Seventh Seal on a big screen. I saw it for the first time on a rental videocasette from Janus that I am sure I would now regard as pixellated to hell and gone—cathode-ray TV, too—but it didn't matter; it changed the inside of my head anyway. I have since seen it on DVD, Blu-Ray, and now Roku. Everything but its own rightful, original, silver-salt 35 mm. I have never seen A Canterbury Tale on a big screen, either.
(I hope the audience at least reacted favorably to the insult duel. I still think threatening to fart on someone and blow them down to their own professional circle of hell is flyting at its finest.)
