A night at the movies We took in a movie while in Governor's Harbour - "A night at the Museum". Our curiosity was more in seeing the only theatre on the island than the movie itself. Ticket prices were $5.00 (U.S. or Bahamian dollar) per adult-$5.50 for the balcony seats. The concession booth offered popcorn, burgers, hot dogs as well as conch salad. We, and our friends, were the only patrons on the night we attended. Even though we bought the best seats in the house (balcony) and made purchases at the concession booth, we were concerned about how air-conditioning this large theatre and the 3 or 4 staff operating it could bring any profit. This concern would be ours alone as we have repeatedly witnessed the Bahamian attitude which is centered on happiness rather than commercial gain.
