Hi there, I'm interested in booking tickets for a movie that I want to see.
assistant
OK. I've got a whole bunch of options! Which movie in particular interests you?
user
I'm split between two. I'm looking for something lighthearted, like a comedy or maybe easygoing documentary. Maybe something like Not My Problem or Backcountry.
