IN PERSON - Sorry, Baby at AMC East Hanover, Discussion at The Office


Details
**DATE AND TIME CHANGE** - Due to a conflict with the Drew Shakespeare Theater event, this event has been moved to SUNDAY, July 27 at 12:45 pm. We will have a late lunch at The Office instead of dinner. Apologies to those who have already bought tickets for Saturday. I am going to get a refund for my Saturday ticket and buy the same seat for Sunday at 12:45 pm. I hope you all can still attend!

Writer-director-star Eva Victor's debut feature follows Agnes (Victor), a graduate student turned literature professor, over five years. Moving backward and forward in time, Victor reveals the complexity of Agnes's attempt to recover from a traumatic incident. Agnes finds comfort and possibility in her best friend Lydia (Naomi Ackie), her friendly neighbor (Lucas Hedges), and a cat. Victor won the Waldo Salt Screenwriting Award at this year's Sundance Film Festival, the first of what could be multiple awards for one of this year's best-reviewed films.
The film is characterized as a dark comedy drama, and is a NY Times Critics Pick and is currently the best-reviewed film of the year at Metacritic, with a score of 88. At Rotten Tomatoes, it has a critics score of 97% and an audience score of 96%.
We will see the 12:45 pm screening at AMC East Hanover. Tickets are on sale now, and it is in a small auditorium, so I am going to buy my ticket today. After the film we will meet just outside the auditorium, and head to The Office in East Hanover (240 NJ-10, East Hanover, NJ 07936) for discussion. I am going to aim for a table outside on their patio if the weather is nice.
Runtime 1hr 43min
If you are new to the group – welcome! Please be aware of the following:
OUR NO SHOW POLICY:
• If you RSVP and your plans then change, we ask that you notify us and change your RSVP as soon as possible - definitely before the start of the event. It's unfair for the group to wait around after the film for people who do not show up. And it fouls up reservations made at the restaurants we visit. NO SHOWS WILL NOW BE WARNED ONCE AND REMOVED FROM THE GROUP AFTER THE SECOND OCCURRENCE. We keep a list of no-shows - please change your RSVP prior to the start of the event so you don't end up on it! Thank you for your consideration.

When you RSVP you are accepting these terms upon yourself and your guests (if any). I hereby waive, release, and discharge the Meetup Group and its officers, leaders, volunteers, employees, organizers, sponsors, members, and participants from any claims for personal injury, property damage, or death resulting from my participation in any of this group’s events.
