When I was thirteen my friends and i pushed our way into the queue to see the first star wars movie. It was 1977 and back then people had to queue up for hours to see new releases.We were standing around trying to decide what to see when a gap appeared in the queue. No one seemed to notice so we just stepped into the gap.My cousin who was with us saw the film TWELVE more times after that. not me ,two more times was enough.
When i was fifteen my friend and i tried to get in to see Halloween, it was Rrated so you had to be 18 or over to see it. He was a lot bigger than me so he went to the counter to get the tickets but was refused because he had no i.d so we went down the road to another cinema to try and get in to see The Warriors..also R rated.I had gone to all the trouble to wear extra clothes to make me look bigger and thought if I walked up to the counter with a scowl on my face i'd look older for some reason....it didnt matter,the woman didnt even look at me or ask for id she just gave me the tickets and in we went.All that effort and worrying for nothing!
Will share some more memories next time
