In the cinema

Hi,

which of these sentences can be used when buying a ticket in the cinema:

#1 Anywhere in the fifth row will be fine.
#2 Anything in the fifth row will be fine.

I'm not sure about #2 because it is a literal translation from my mother tongue.

We don't get reserved seats at the movies in the US, but from my experience at the theatre, symphony, etc., your second sentence sounds more common to me. The first, however, is certainly fine.
