Chris sees and reviews Trumbo at the Huntington Theatre. He generally likes it, except for the morally facile ending, but has words for the audience:

I will say, though, that the audience suffered from what I previously called Cambridge Film Audience Syndrome (CFAS), a tendency to vocalize sighs, laughs and other noise that signal the audience's political and historical superiority to the subject matter. Highly annoying.

That's a side of human nature that's not much use to anybody, even the perpetrators themselves.
