IN BRUGES (2008 crime/dark comedy) Read the script + watch the movie + discuss!

We are the biggest, most active, and most inclusive MeetUp community in Jakarta…

…and we invite you to join us for this MOVIE SCREENING & SCRIPT DISCUSSION Vol. II

Everyone is always welcome to join our events. Our community is all about creating authentic in-person connections in this urban jungle.

Come as you are... it’s the best version of yourself.

ABOUT THE EVENT
Wait, IN BRUGES where? It's in Belgium. What's IN BRUGES? A hilarious crime/dark comedy based (you got it!) in Bruges starring Colin Farrell, Brendan Gleeson, and Ralph Fiennes (18+).

We will read beforehand (on our owns) the screenplay of IN BRUGES (2008) by oscar-winning director Martin McDonagh (of "Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri"), which everyone will receive as Pdf a few weeks ahead.

On the D-Day we will watch the movie (running time about 110 min) at the café Ngoepi in Cilandak at 6 PM. After the movie, we will sit down and discuss for about 30-60 minutes.

Here's the trailer of In Bruges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p-gG2qo_l_A The script ain't long (about 100 pages) and makes for a fun read!

After the movie we can talk about anything we wish to. A few examples: what's did you learn while writing the script? What's different from the script vs the movie? How did the writer set the tone and genre? How did the director set (blocked and staged) the scenes? Raise anyhting you wish to discuss! Ask questions to fellow cinema buffs, and show off what you learned and know about scriptwriting and filmmaking.

That's a DREAM EVENT for cinemagoers, creatives, readers, (script) writers, storytellers, creatives. Just join and enojy this VERY SPECIAL event. Come without reading the script, if you must, but it will be only half as fun.
