The ticket situation for “Naza”?

Nada.

No one in Manhattan is buying tickets for the controversial documentary in which anonymous sources accuse Israel of targeting bombing of Gaza civilians. The film was made by two Israelis who couldn’t anyone to go on the record. 

At the IFC Center on Sixth Avenue, two shows today were marked “sold out.” But every other show this weekend — and there are plenty — are wide open. I was able to reserve at least 23 seats for each one. You can buy seven at a time (see below).

Over at the Angelika Cinema 1 2 3 on West Houston Street, there were even more “Naza” tickets available. (see below)

Considering reports of protests, there may be more people outside the theaters than inside.

I haven’t seen “Naza” yet but I want to, and I urge everyone interested to look at it. Then watch the pro-Israel film about Naza with actual sources, not anonymous ones, and make your decision.

PS Although there were some sellouts tonight in Los Angeles, the situation is the same pretty much for tomorrow – lots of blue (see at bottom)
