Details
"Train Dreams is the best film at Sundance." "Train Dreams is a staggering work of art". Just a few of the quotes I saw when looking for a photo to use. So, here's another Oscar Quest contender! After the film we will head over to Ani Ramen House - see comments for details.

Based on the beloved novella by Denis Johnson, TRAIN DREAMS is the moving portrait of Robert Grainier (Joel Edgerton), whose life unfolds during an era of unprecedented change in early 20th century America. Orphaned at a young age, Robert grows into adulthood in towering forests of the Pacific Northwest, where he helps expand the nation’s railroad empire. After a tender courtship, he marries Gladys (Felicity Jones) and they build a home together. But when his life takes an unexpected turn, Robert finds beauty, brutality, and newfound meaning for the forests and trees he has felled.

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.
