And they are both AMC theaters!  So if something isn't carried by AMC, you
won't get it in Columbia unless...

They are great.  I miss them.  You can see movies in Columbia that I can't
see here in Minneapolis and it's only because of Ragtag.

Remember 'Pollock,' the movie starring Ed Harris about artist Jackson
Pollock?  It was a great film with several academy award nominations
including a win for best performance by an actress in a leading role, but
it didn't show on AMC screens, so you only saw it in Columbia, MO, if you
went to Ragtag.
