MoviePass recently surpassed the 1 million subscriber mark. The movie ticket subscription service boasts major gains since decreasing its price this summer.
Mitch Lowe is the CEO of MoviePass, and he joins Cheddar to explain why the company has experienced such growth. Lowe explains that the pass is a great deal for most consumers if they go to the movie theater once a month.
