Inside the White House is a cushy, 40-seat movie theater, here turned into a Super Bowl viewing party by Chelsea Clinton, Socks, President Clinton and then Gov. Ann Richards of Texas in 1993. While the theater had been an East Wing feature for decades, it got a Hollywood makeover during the Reagan years, when the studios spent $150,000 on an update and started giving the first family their pick of first-run features. What does that mean for Sasha and Malia? No standing in lines when HSM 4 comes out!
