Receiving a standing ovation from the audience at the Rose Theatre on Wednesday night, owner Rocky Friedman expressed his gratitude to supporters who waited 499 days for the downtown Port Townsend cinema to reopen. Friedman also introduced his mother Miriam, 101, during his speech before the showing of the film “The Truffle Hunters,” from Italy.
