Action Movies

Every two weeks, I will propose a two-hour foreign movie, with subtitles. I already have a lot of French films, some serious, some fun, and I'm happy to share them. I also have a few foreign classics, and even some Japanese, Korean or Chinese gems.

This event will be for people to meet, go off and film, come back and enjoy the results. Whatever you want to do, be it film, act, direct or even just sort of hang around at the back then this is the event for you! MEET AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE NATIONAL THEATRE. If you are wondering what this group can provide for you, it’s above all else friendship with other like minded people, whether you are a screenwriter, director, cameraperson, actor etc etc. With that in mind, on Saturday we will do the following: 1. We’ll meet at the National Theatre on Southbank. 2. We’ll split into two groups (or more if needed) 3. Each team will try and beat the other teams to a pub in EC1 in London and edit (maybe) the film. BUT 4. Each team must make a 2 minute 30 seconds film on the way with a beginning middle and end, a solid story arc for the main character, etc. Remember to bring: 1. You and your enthusiasm 2. A camera (iPhones dslrs whatever) 3. Someone willing to do an edit after we arrive back at the on their computers All teams will then meet-up at a pub in EC1 and watch what we have filmed, happy with what they have learnt! The first team that finishes gets a Small Prize! Hopefully then, you will stick around to have a great time chatting about film, meeting new people, and forgetting about work until the late hours. Look forward to seeing you there! If there are no more places available on meetup then MORE tickets available on eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/o/ben-52750032443 Please Check Dates as this isnt a weekly meetup

***🪶In the place you were sent to leave behind, you find the reason to fight your way out.*** 👋 **Hello everyone!** join me for a captivating evening at **BFI Southbank!** We’ll dive into a gripping biographical drama by **Mario Martone**, with **Valeria Golino** portraying the trailblazing writer **Goliarda Sapienza**. The film delves into her transformative prison experience, inspiring new, unconventional bonds beyond societal norms. Set in 1980s Rome, it follows **Sapienza’s** five-day incarceration for theft and her life-changing friendships with young inmates, especially Roberta (played by **Matilda De Angelis**). It’s a raw and powerful portrait of returning to freedom and forging authentic connections. We’ll first gather at the **BFI box office** (Lightbox entrance), and then proceed to **NFT Screen 1** for the screening, which will include an **introduction and Q&A** led by actress **Valeria Golino**. Honestly this is one of my favourite places for events, full of class, film culture, and a warm welcome. And, If you'd like, I’ll be **seated in C4**, just look out for me. Afterward, we’ll gather at the **BFI Cafe Ba**r for **drinks and discussion**, where we can share perspectives and, of course, post our final thoughts on **[Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse)**. **I look forward to seeing you there!** **Giulia** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **HEADS UP** * If you **sign up** and later can’t make it, **please 🙏 drop us a quick message** (or change your RSVP) — it really helps with planning.

**Update: full for all instruments** *Please only sign up if your instrument (or vocals) is not indicated above as full for this session.* full list of scheduled sessions: https://www.meetup.com/Practice-Jazz-Jam-Sessions/events/ **What is it** The novice rehearsal sessions provide an opportunity for people who are relatively new to jazz, to play in a friendly, low-pressure environment. With a short set list that attendees can prepare in advance, it becomes a little less daunting to play and get the most out of practising in a group. See below for this week's setlist. Please sign up before attending. Already full for your instrument? Please check back every other Wednesday, when new sessions go live. If you keep not being able to get a spot, please message the organiser (Xie). Location: Vortex upstairs **Who's it for** Anyone who has practised following the forms (chord progressions) of jazz tunes - maybe on their own at home - and would like to build up playing experience, expand repertoire and practice performing with other musicians. There are various introductions on how jazz jams work - see e.g. https://jazznightschool.org/pages/jam-session-basics You don't need to get all these details right for these novice practice sessions. The set list format should offer opportunities for those at different levels of developing their playing. While at the beginning one might struggle to follow/comp the chords or play through the melody, it gets easier over time and one can start to develop approaches to improvisation, harmonise lead lines, add intros/endings, work on communication between band members, and even listen to recordings together and pick up specific arrangements. Bass players are expected to be able to play a walking bass line on swing tunes, and simple bossa lines for bossa novas. Playing the melody, or "head" - the responsibility is shared between horns players (e.g. sax, trumpet, violin), guitar and piano. Feel free to discuss among the group before each song - different parts of the head or the starting / ending heads can be played by different players. Some melodies will better suit several voices at the same time, whereas others are sensitive to variations in how they are played and may prefer a single instrument at a time. **What it's like** A relaxed and welcoming atmosphere - please put aside any worries of making mistakes if you’re thinking of joining us for the first time. To ensure the group is accessible for those at different levels, I ask that each novice session should work on only the below four songs of the set list, unless each and every attendee feels they prefer to move on. Each novice session is limited to up to: 1 drummer, 2 bass, 2 keys, 2 guitar, 3/4 lead instruments. Always use the top of the description to see if there is an available slot for your instrument - please do not try to work this out yourself by looking at the other attendees' instruments. **Tunes this week (Sat Mar 7)** * Blue Monk in Bb (warm up) (Chad LB) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMMV08xo43U * Meditation in C (Dexter Gordon) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mz2nNNj7O8o * Someday my prince will come in Bb (Miles Davis) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fWN9UfUV9eE * Afternoon in Paris in C (Benny Golson) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiaTpTNoPa0multi (attempt the harmonising lines) Everyone is encouraged to listen to a variety of recordings for each song, but please ensure you are familiar with the recording provided as a primary reference. **Tune preview - next novice session (Sat Mar 14)** * Fly me to the moon in C (warm up) (Scott Hamilton) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhIapeq7GBU * On Green Dolphin Street in Eb (Miles Davis) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xGVdAlxlp18 * Moanin' in Fm (Chad LB) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyQm1kE41os * Doxy in Bb (Davis, Rollins) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VWreJOSbIQQ **Preparing for the session** The chordal form of each song follow the iReal Pro app as a common reference, or you can use sheet music from Real Books. Resource for sheet music: https://www.seventhstring.com/fbindex.html http://therealbook.info/ Try to immerse yourself in the songs by listening to recordings by different artists on youtube, spotify etc. Learn the head (main melody) of the song if you can. Don't hesitate to let the band know you can play it so you can start things off **Playing well together** The rehearsal groups are often quite large for a jazz ensemble setting. Please follow the below arrangements, which are designed to help the group be mindful of each other's volumes, and to build good habits for playing as a group * Every tune should be played at least twice. Swap the bass, piano and guitar players between the two renditions (if there are two attending) * Only one guitarist should comp - i.e. play chords - for each rendition (both guitarists can solo, and comp without amplification) * After each rendition of the warm up tune, the whole group should take a moment together and help each other to check on volumes, including: \*\* Can everyone hear themselves? \*\* Are the drums too loud? \*\* Can everyone hear the bass? \*\* Is the guitar comping too loud? \*\* Is the piano loud enough? (staff at the office can turn this up) \*\* Feel free to revisit volumes after subsequent songs * For any song, if at least two people in the group feel it would be better, the guitar and piano should share the choruses for comping (instead of comping together) - e.g. guitar comps the first time through the head, then piano, then guitar, etc. **Equipment** there is a piano, drum kit (no cymbals or high hat clutch), bass and guitar amps, stands, and microphones. Drummers: please bring cymbals (none available for rental) and hi hat clutch **Vocalists** Singers are welcome, however please note that the songs have fixed keys, and some of the repertoire are likely not in the right key for your range. If you are an experienced singer, it may be possible to arrange sessions with repertoire catered to you - to explore this, please first come to the "Afternoon Open Jams" so I can get a sense of your singing. **Observing** Would you like to attend a session without playing/singing, to get an idea of the format or to get a sense of what to practise first at home? You can sign up as usual to any novice session, and send me a message that you'd like only to watch the session. When you feel ready, the fee paid can be carried over toward any future session where you join to play or sing at the rehearsal. **Cancellation policy** Please try to make it to any session you sign up to, as the jams are organised around a particular mix of instruments. However, if things do come up and you can no longer make a session, please send a message to the organiser, Xie, as soon as possible. Places are non-refundable if your plans change, but if you provide over 1 week notice it may be possible to carry over the fee for a future session. \-\-\-\-\- any questions do get in touch!

***🍷At war with himself, feared by all, tortured and alone—when the sun sets, the hunt begins.*** **👋 Greetings everyone!** Let’s meet up for a gothic adventure as we step into a world of dark fantasy anime. Directed by **Yoshiaki Kawajiri**, this film transports us to a dark, atmospheric future, where the undead have risen from apocalyptic ashes, and vampires rule the night—though even they face extinction. While this film serves as a sequel to the original, it’s a standalone story based on the third novel, **Demon Deathchase**, so no need to watch the first film. We’ll start with some pre-show conversation at the **Victory House Wine Bar,** then head over to **Prince Charles Cinema**—spot me in **G10**!

🔩 ***Resurrection never goes to plan—especially when the Bride has her own ideas. Once she’s back… she decides what happens next.⚡️*** 👋 **Hello everyone!** Looks like Monster horror is back, and this time Maggie Gyllenhaal dives straight into the genre with a bold horror-romance reimagining of **Bride of Frankenstein**. The film feels like a fresh rabbit hole into **Mary Shelley’s** creation. Honestly, any story from that universe is worth retelling. Set in **1930s Chicago**, the film follows their outlaw romance against a backdrop of societal unrest. A lonely Frankenstein seeks the help of Dr. Euphronius to create a companion. They reinvigorate a murdered young woman… and a Bride is born. The plan is to meet for drinks at the **Victory House Wine Bar**, so come prepared with your favourite monster stories. The we'll head over to **Cineworld IMAX (Screen 1).** We'll be around **L32** or **D32**, but feel free to pick you preferred seat. After the film we’ll reconvene to score and review it for our **[Letterboxd Page](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse)**. **Something in the air says this Bride is hungry for more than just a little blood and flesh.** **Look forward to seeing you guys there.** **Ray & Ashley** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **HEADS UP** * If you ***sign up*** but later can’t make it, please 🙏 **just drop us a quick message** (or change your RSVP) — it really helps with planning.

**BOOK HERE**: https://sportas.co.uk/games/32021 **Game Description:** Dynamic vinyasa is a faster paced class that is challenging but fun. A breath based practice with opportunities to try something new and maybe balance on your hands. Open to all levels, with options for everyone. As we are a small business, class may be cancelled on the day if numbers are low, please keep an eye on your emails/app. Thank you for understanding. **Rules** If this is your first class please fill out the disclaimer form here: https://forms.gle/sLFPfX3BHrEsNHkE7 Try to arrive at least five minutes early to set up your mat. Turn your phone on silent and leave it away from your mat if you can. Let the teacher know about any injuries or pregnancy. Shoes and socks off for the class. Wear anything that you can freely move and sweat in. There are mats available but bring your own if you can. If you do borrow one, please wipe it down with the wipes after class. Leave the space as you found it - put away any blocks, straps or mats you might have used.

A Rabble session is 1 hour of fun and social team games. Each game disguises high-intensity intervals within the rules, giving you an effective, all-body workout without even realising it. We play a bunch of different games at each session (like British Bulldog, Capture the Flag, Dodgeball, Frisbee and many more), and every class is different. Sessions are open to all, no matter your sporting ability. Each game is explained before we start, so there's no need to have played any of the games before. Come solo or bring friends!

⚖️ ***Caught between two worlds of intrigue and adrenaline? Let your spirit pull you right in.*** 👋 **Hey guys!** So, we’ve got two thrillers hitting the screen at the same time. The gritty world of **Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man** and the high-stakes heist of ‘Crime 101. Whatever the vibe, this is a great opportunity to get together and decide which story stole the night! If you’re drawn to something darker and more serious, you may be interested in the British crime drama **Peaky Blinders: The Immortal Man**, directed by **Tom Harper** and written by **Steven Knight**. The story follows a self-exiled **Tommy Shelby** as he confronts rising Nazi threats and the ghosts of his past when his son is drawn into danger. The film directly continues the **[television series](https://www.netflix.com/watch/80003008?trackId=284616272)** storyline, serving as a powerful, cinematic bookend to the Shelby legacy. On the other hand, if you’re in the mood for something more explosive and popcorn-fuelled, you might want to check out the throwback crime thriller **Crime 101** by Bart Layton. This widely praised new release has drawn comparisons to **[Heat](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PpAhjOvQVj0)** and **[Collateral](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JDf2zIFgO8)**[ ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JDf2zIFgO8)for its moody L.A. noir style, delivering a tense, character-driven story with serious edge. By the way, there are several films playing around the same time at this location, so if you’d prefer an alternative, that’s absolutely fine, either way, we can still catch up at the bar. Make sure to **book your ticket in advance** in case your chosen film sells out. We’ll kick things off at the **Look Dine-In Bar** at **Tysons** at **The Boro** at **6:00 pm** (by then, we’ll have made our choice). I’ve already made mine, but that will remain top secret for now—until I see you. Then around **7:05 pm**, we’ll head over to either **Screen 6** or **Screen 5**, and after the film, we’ll regroup at **10:15 pm** to share highlights and log our thoughts with a **[Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse)** review. No matter what your vibe is, I think it’s going to be a really nice, chilled night for movie buffs. **I look forward to seeing you guys there.** **Jonny** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **HEADS UP** * If you sign up and later can’t make it, please 🙏 drop us a quick message (or change your RSVP) — it really helps with planning.

By popular vote, the movie for this month is THE BRIDE! We're going back to Reston DINE IN again. Please update your RSVPs to let us know if you're coming. Generally I try to get a seat in the middle near the back row. We will meet for a drink nearby about an hour ahead of the movie at a location TBD. The theatre will serve dinner at your movie seat. Sign up and look for a private message with details.

***🚀 In a world full of uncertainties, sometimes a leap of faith is the only move left.*** 👋**Alright you guys!** Let’s diving into this curious sci-fi tale produced and directed by **Phil Lord** and **Christopher Miller**. The movie is based on the novel **[Project Hail Mary](https://www.geeksundergrace.com/books/review-project-hail-mary/?gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=23139483815&gbraid=0AAAAAqvjQFMYnc3ud9V-P6SSY-qXebUwV&gclid=CjwKCAiAqprNBhB6EiwAMe3yhlboGns-cQO3Mv9lFvsWTJAIiuzsCE9i5o0NSll4xoYqRNMRq343BBoCDP8QAvD_BwE)** by **Andy Weir** (The Martian.) and was a hit back in 2021 blending science, suspense, and humour. **Ryan Gosling** was so drawn to the book, that he jumped on board as producer. The film follows a man who wakes up on an interstellar spacecraft with no memory of how he got there and soon realises he’s on a mission to save Earth. Definitely something to chat about over drinks and bring to life in a nutshell. We’ll keep things easygoing with a **casual pre-social** before heading into the screening together. Afterward, we’ll wrap up with a **[Letterboxd](https://letterboxd.com/movieroadhouse/) review and discussion.** More details, including timing and location (very likely in the Tysons area), will be updated closer to the date. I’m hearing a lot of buzz about the film, so it should be a fun watch! **Can't wait to catch up with you guys** **Chat soon** **Jonny** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **HEADS UP** * If you sign up and later can’t make it, please 🙏 drop us a quick message (or change your RSVP) — it really helps with planning.

Join the [Veg Society of DC (VSDC)](vsdc.org) for a pro-animal/vegan-themed Movie Watch Party on Saturday, March 21 at 3:00 pm in Fairfax VA. Socializing with vegan food beforehand and discussion about the movie afterwards is planned. THIS MONTH'S MOVIE WATCH PARTY WILL BEGIN AT 3 PM. This month's movie is Wicked: For Good (Part 2). *Wicked: For Good* explores the untold story behind the witches of Oz, following two unlikely friends whose choices, values, and courage shape the world around them. It’s a powerful, visually stunning story about identity, loyalty, and what it truly means to be “good.” The movie is 2 hours and 17 minutes long. The VSDC member hosts’ home in Fairfax has a small home theater that can accommodate around 20 people. This regular event is a fun way to learn, discuss, and meet vegans and vegan-curious people (Thanks to Mindy Kursban and David Kwiatkowski for hosting!). FEE: The $12 fee will cover the hosts' expenses for the event, including food, beverages, and other associated costs. If there are any proceeds beyond these costs, which we don't expect, they will go towards VSDC's work to fulfill its mission. In order to ensure the success of the evening and limit late cancellations, **the fee is refundable until 5 days before the event. [NOTE the fee increase due to the increase in the cost of food]** BECAUSE THERE IS A FEE FOR THIS EVENT, MEETUP DOES NOT ALLOW FOR A WAITLIST ONCE THE RSVPs ARE FULL. IF IT IS FULL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU CHECK MEETUP OCCASIONALLY TO SEE IF ANYONE HAS CHANGED THEIR RSVP. FOOD: For our afternoon movie watch party, we’ll have mostly snack-style foods. Feel free to bring any vegan food or beverages to share. WHO: All VSDC and Meetup members are invited. Bringing a non-vegan friend is encouraged. WHEN: Saturday, March 21 **at 3:00 pm**\*\*\*. We'll eat and enjoy social time together first and begin watching the movie around 3:30. Please note this movie is longer than usual, so you can give yourself enough time to stay till the end. WHERE: The home is in Fairfax VA 22033, near Inova Fair Oaks Hospital. It is 8 miles from the closest metro at either Vienna or Reston (Uber or Lyft would be necessary). **For safety and security reasons, the exact location will be emailed privately via Meetup about 2 days in advance to those who have rsvp'd Yes.** Please make sure your email is current in Meetup, your Meetup settings allow organizer messages, and check your spam if you don't receive the message. PARKING: There is plenty of free parking within a 3-minute walk of the home. \*You must register via this page to attend the event.\* A Pay Pal account is required to pay the $12. Because there is a cost for the event, Meetup doesn't have a waitlist for the movie. **VSDC: More Than A Meetup** We are delighted to have you as part of The Veg Society of DC Vegan Meetup group, and we look forward to seeing you at our events.
