A new member reminded me of this theater. This will also be the first old film we have seen as a group.

Here's a website about the Polish director and the film: http://www.wajda.pl/e...

Wajda's synthesis has given birth to an outstanding art work about revolt against submission. Historical limitations are recognised, but people don't have to wear masks or have double standards any longer. Passionate and driven by the desire for a harmonious life, Man of Marble is an exceptional drama about the revolt of flesh, blood and common sense in defence of the right to authenticity, naturalness, and spontaneity. This is not nihilism - to the contrary, it is life - lived with the awareness that such a way of living is the most free, and the most moral.
