What we’re about
What's better than seeing a movie, then discussing it over food and drink? In Morristown it's easy enough to do both! Enjoy a great movie, discover a new place with delicious food, and have stimulating conversation with friendly, interesting people. We won't just stay in Morristown. If the movies we want to see don't come to us, we'll go to them! You'll find us in Morristown and surrounding areas, Bernardsville, East Hanover, Rockaway, Cranford, etc. but we'll go to specialty theatres in Chatham and Montclair as well. We'll enjoy a broad, eclectic range of movies and a variety of food. Sure beats going to the movies by yourself!
Our Meetups will take place at different times of day - sometimes involving dinner, sometimes lunch or afternoon tea. Ideally, all within walking distance of the theatre. All movie fans are welcome. Hope you can join us!
We have recently added "annual" dues to the group. Why? Because Meetup charges me, as the organizer, $90 every six months, to host this group. Our group members thought it fair that this cost be dispersed via dues, since I don't charge for events. And because they didn't want me to continue to pay $180 per year to host the group! The best part is that the more people who pay the dues, the longer we are covered. So, the dues may up being bi-annual instead! Enjoy your free trial and hopefully you will become a full member after that!

See all- May Classics : A Man for All Seasons (1966)Link visible for attendees
The story of Henry VIII's battle with the Catholic Church has been told many times, but this film takes it on from the point of view of Sir Thomas More, the lawyer, judge, theologian and friend of King Henry who fatally refused to bless his divorce and especially his self appointment as head of the English Church. Centuries later he was canonized as Saint Thomas More.
This film, beautifully filmed and superbly acted headed by Paul Scofield's Oscar winning performance, includes Robert Shaw (Henry), Susannah York(Margaret), Leo McKern(Cromwell), Wendy Hiller(Alice) and even Orson Welles (Wolsey).
The movie was nominated for eight Academy awards and won six including best picture, director (Fred Zimmerman), actor (Scofield), and nominations for best supporting actress (Hiller) and actor (Shaw).HOW TO WATCH
