Big News! DOJ Rules for Movie Theater Captioning and Audio Description Take Effect
Captions anyone?
If you enjoy movies, and who doesn’t, then you’ll be happy to see the news that movie theaters showing digital movies must provide means for delivering closed captioning and audio description.

So get out to the movies (and make sure it’s digital)!
