I actually got free passes to my local theater, as they insisted that the movie, "Sully" was not audio described. I later found out it was actually so. I'm not sexist, nor am I ageist, if that be a word, but it was a Sunday afternoon when we went. Normally, our theater is wonderful, and there

Nope, but if you're visiting one of many chains that now offer audio description, just borrow a device from their customer service desk. As an example, where I live in San Francisco, AMC, Century, Alamo Draft House, they all have listening devices available. My suggestion is to get there early,

To drag out of the library and into your project, use the copy and paste method in the tutorial. Dragging them around the canvas doesn't yet work with VO, even though the canvas itself is now more accessible. I haven't updated that tutorial yet because Xcode 8 just hasn't been playing nice with
