The Interview Opens Christmas Day In Select Cinemas

Sony has made an about-face and The Interview is going to open on Christmas Day as planned, if only in a few select cinemas. Almost a week after pulling the movie, the studio is said to have authorized the screening of the film on December 25th in the theatres that have shown interest all along in showing the movie despite the hackers threats.
