Intermission? At a movie theater?
In India, we have intervals between movies. It is a part of our movie watching culture (probably introduced because of the length of our films). Thats why films that release in India are asked to incorporate intervals within the movie itself (they display a sign during the movie that says 'Interval' or 'Intermission'). If a movie is 2 hrs 30 mins long, the interval comes after 1 hr and 15 mins (or close to that). Basically the film is split into two halves, first half and second half. Even the Indian films that release in the US, we have the intermission as part of it. Best time to go out and grab some fresh snacks, and also talk about how the movie is going so far. If the movie is boring, you can sneak out without disturbing people.
