NORWICH, UK — Due to pressure from area teachers, the Vue Cinema decided to cancel its 9 am showing of Disney’s “High School Music 3” last week for fear it would promote truancy.

The theater wanted to be the first in the area to screen it, but caved in to complaints from local schools.

However, some bloggers commented that many schools were off last week and wanted to see the film early.

“High School Music 3” wound up taking in $42 million in the US in its opening weekend and more than $40 million throughout the rest of the world.
