ENCORE EVENT: Wild Horse Nine @AMC East Hanover, Discuss @East Hanover Diner
Details
Wild Horse Nine was a big hit at last month’s Montclair Film Festival, winning the Audience Award for Fiction Feature, and is getting strong Oscar buzz for a number of awards. John Malkovich has already won Best Actor at the recent Venice Film Festival for his performance in this film. Sam Rockwell and Steve Buscemi costar with Malkovich. It was written and directed by Martin McDonagh, whom you may remember from his 2022 film, The Banshees of Inisherin.
I’m hosting this encore event for anyone who did not get to see it with our group in Montclair, for anyone who wants to see it again (me!), and for anyone who has seen it and just wants to talk about it.
We’ll see the 7:00 pm screening at AMC East Hanover, then afterwards we’ll go up the road to discuss over coffee & dessert at East Hanover Diner at 9:30 pm.
Tickets are on sale now.
For anyone new to the group, we meet right outside the auditorium after the movie, before heading to the restaurant.
If you’ve already seen the movie and are only joining for dessert and discussion, please let us know in the comments so we don’t wait for you at the theater.
RUNTIME: 1 hr 58 min
SYNOPSIS: Shortly before the 1973 Chilean coup, CIA agents Chris (John Malkovich) and Lee (Sam Rockwell) are dispatched from Santiago to Easter island by their bureau chief, MJ (Steve Buscemi). Amongst the Island's iconic statues, and as the longtime partners wrestle with their dark pasts and present conspiracies, Chris's newfound bond with a pair of rebellious students (Mariana di Girolamo and Ailín Salas) threatens to send everyone’s trip to this remote paradise sideways.

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.
