We went. It was interesting but...
THEY DIDN'T SHOW THE DOCUMENTARY!!!!
I guess we all misread the announcement... so we watched a panel of the director (Frank Thomas' son), the producer, the composer/music supervisor and the cinematographer talk about a movie that almost nobody had seen. Since we were all pretty familiar with the subject, it would have been a better panel after having seen the flick.
But...
seeing Saludos Amigos on the big screen was AWESOME. One of my favorite Disney films. According to the folks at the Egyptian, it was a special print made by Disney for this screening, and that this was the first time it had an official theatrical showing since 1949.
