Residents of a B.C. Interior community are pushing back after a mystery critic left some thoughts at the ticket window about a popular Hollywood musical.

Friday was premiere day at the Gem Theatre in Grand Forks for Wicked, a movie based on 91裸聊视频檚 loose adaptation of the 1995 novel , which explores the origin stories of Wizard of Oz characters Glinda, the Good Witch of the East and Elphaba, the Wicked Witch of the West.

Just before opening that evening, a handwritten note was left in the ticket window next to the entrance, that read 91裸聊视频淚t is disturbing and concerning that you play the movie 91裸聊视频淲icked91裸聊视频� in your theater! Do some research!!!91裸聊视频� No name or contact information was left with the note.

An image of the note was posted on a Grand Forks Facebook community site, which immediately drew a lot of questions over why the mystery critic was so upset over the film.

Since its release, conservative groups have accused it of allegedly being pro-LGBTQ as one of the plot points is sexual tension between Glenda and Elphaba, as well as Elphaba being branded a villain as an allegory to being cast out by society for being different and true to oneself.

The Gazette reached out to Gem Theatre owner Shaun Aquiline, who pointed to his own Facebook comment on this, adding as a theatre proprietor, he has and will continue to show different genres.

Sooooooo91裸聊视频�.. a musical that hints to the Wizard of Oz is not something I am going to lose sleep over at all,91裸聊视频� he wrote. 91裸聊视频淚 mean91裸聊视频� it91裸聊视频檚 a movie about a Bear on cocaine, which, if I am not mistaken is an illegal substance. Not to mention: the Terrifier, Black Phone, Nope, Halloween, Nightmare on Elm Street. Also, Wicked Part 2 will be out this November in 2025. We will also play the sequel.91裸聊视频�

He also posted a video advertising the film and again addressing the controversy over the film.
