"By offering some measure of entertainment at an affordable price, we hope to alleviate some of the hardships of those who have been displaced by Katrina. We also want to help the thousands who are providing aid and who are feeling the reverberations of this disaster in many ways. We recognize that this is a high stress time - people are in need of a brief escape that a movie can provide."
