I went to a local ,small,neighborhood movie theater recently to see "American Animals"

When we were leaving I remarked to the manager that I loved the movie and that it was great hearing the Leonard Cohen music at the end.

He said to me," You are familiar with Leonard Cohen? Wow!"

I doubt very much that he would have said that to a 30 year old male.
