Cinema Lovers

***🤵Most weddings are not all sunshine… especially this one*** **Hey guys!** I think this film could be a great ride for the group. **The Drama**, written and directed by **Christopher Borgi**, has sparked significant controversy and debate due to it being marketed as a rom-com despite its heavy subject matter. The premise is about a blissfully happy couple whose relationship cracks during their wedding week after a shocking twist. We’ll meet at the **Victory House Wine Bar at 6:20 pm**, then head over to **Vue Cinema Leicester Square for the 7:15 pm screening in Screen 4**. I’ll be in seat A6, and I recommend booking in advance where possible to avoid disappointment on the day. Following the film, we'll meet again to review it and we should pick apart this film the same way we would a wedding couple. **See you guys there,** **Abdul** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 👉 **HEADS UP** * If you **sign up** but later can’t make it, please **just drop me a quick message** (or change your RSVP) — it really helps with planning.

A first for this group - a food and premium cyder matching dinner!

The food at The Holland cooked by head chef Max de Nahlik is always at a very high standard. The Newt's cyders are made from 100% apple juice, slowly cold-fermented in the cellar for months, sometimes years, for a fresh, aromatic expression exuding the full flavour of the fruit, even the weather of the growing season. Sam from The Newt will introduce the cyders. **Here is the menu with matching cyders:** Brown crab with Roast Chicken skin **with Winston** \-\-\-\-\- Asparagus, wild garlic and white crab, cider dressing **with Falstaff** \-\-\-\-\- Scallops with elderflower vinegar, apple kimchi dressing **with Wyvern Wing** \-\-\-\-\- Wild Rabbit braised in Falstaff cyder, mustard, tarragon and a dash of cream, mash and chard **with Orchard Amble** \-\-\-\-\- Burnt honey tart, apple and creme fraiche **with Yarlington Ice Cyder** **DIETARY ISSUES:** This event is suited to 'flexible' diners the menu is fixed. **COST:** The 'ticket price of this event is £89 to include the 5 course food and cyder matching menu, service charge, and meetup/paypal fees.

*✨**The Worst Person in the World is a wistful and subversive romantic drama about the quest for love and meaning in contemporary Oslo.*** 👋 **Hey everyone**, we’re watching a film that revolves around Julie (a dazzling star-making central performance from **Renate Reinsve**), a vibrant and impulsive young woman who, on the verge of turning thirty, is faced with **a series of drastic choices** that force her to **continually reinvent** and pursue new perspectives on her life… Over the course of several years, Julie navigates **multiple love affairs,** **existential uncertainty** and career dissatisfaction as she slowly starts deciding what she wants to do, who she wants to be with, and ultimately who she wants to become. [Trailer](https://youtu.be/w_cV1q02cyE) Co-starring Trier regular **Anders Danielsen** Lie and **Herbert Nordrum** as the men pivoting around Julie’s magnetic presence. **This is as much a formally playful character study as it is a poignant and perceptive observation of quarter-life angst.

If you haven’t seen it yet—like me—come join this adventure with fellow horror fans.

Meet out front at ten to 1pm (12:50) and go in together. Join Lester Hillman for a talk about John Harrison, master clockmaker. I have long been fascinated by historic issues with measuring longitude. Rather important for ships to know where they had sailed to! This problem couldn't be solved until clocks were accurate enough, and capable of functioning aboard ships. Please join me. RSVP as soon as you know, I still need to request more tickets. The attendance fee is £2.50, thank you.

Join us as we get together for a Discount Tuesday / Choose Your Movie event to see your choice of two great new films! Option 1 (and the one I'll be seeing) is the top-reviewed comedy-drama, THE CHRISTOPHERS! The film is set in the art world and follows the estranged children of a former artist who hire a forger. It is directed by Steven Soderberg, stars Ian McKellen and Michaela Coel and has been earning rave reviews on the indie circuit. Option 2 is the latest action-thriller starring Bob Odenkirk, NORMAL! The film follows a temporary small-town sheriff who uncovers dark mysteries after a local bank robbery. Here are descriptions, trailers and our plan for this event: THE CHRISTOPHERS: The children of a once famous artist hire a forger to complete some unfinished, long ago abandoned canvases so they'll have a better inheritance when he dies. It is directed by Steven Soderbergh and stars Ian McKellen, Michaela Coel, Jessica Gunning and James Corden. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film is earning an excellent 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “dynamic, emotional and surprising journey” and a “compelling chamber piece that works like intellectual comfort food.” Others call the film, an “incredibly funny, comedy drama with plot reversals that make it feel like it’s on the verge of a thriller!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H79-EqzmdwY&t=20s NORMAL: This action-crime-thriller follows a man who comes to the sleepy town of Normal, Minnesota to serve as the temporary sheriff. But a bank robbery leads him to a criminal underground reaches throughout the entire town. The film is directed by Ben Wheatley and stars Bob Odenkirk, Henry Winkler and Lena Headey. The film comes from the same team that brought us Nobody and the John Wick series, so expect an over-the-top, action-filled thrill ride! TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rmm-lM33Qw0&t=19s PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime. Once showtimes are announced, advance ticket purchase is advised (GFC website preferred)! Please list your movie of choice and seat number in the Comments section of this event. Showtimes and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St). Bring your ticket with you and have it validated at the theater and for $2, you’re covered for the night! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

**On Freestyle night** \- just bring a bottle to share\. There is NO formal wine tasting like on other weeks\. Door charge is $10 \(cash or Venmo only please\)\. We may have some left over wines to clear out\! Glasses are provided\. Take Care\. See you there\. **Parking**: There are several public parking lots near the Alive614 hall. Please be careful to NOT park in private parking lots. They do tow. Check Google maps to scope out your space. Anyone who is early could easily find a parking space on the street nearby. I am told that the Chase parking lot is safe after hours. **Glasses**: …will be provided. Please note that after the wine tasting, the EMPTY glasses need to be returned to the boxes at the service table. Please do not make me hunt down your empty glass. Please be gentle, our glasses are fragile. Uh, they are made of glass! (ps - empty the glasses into the sink, not the trash ... please) **Food**: You are welcome to bring a snack to share. It is not required. Most people do though. If no one brings anything, there will be nothing. **Code of Conduct**: Though mostly understood, it’s still worth mentioning. We don’t have rules per se, but we highly discourage the following topics of discussion because they are likely to incite anti-social responses - Sex, Politics, Religion. Please don’t mistake this as an attempt to limit your free speech rights but rather a guide to a place and time for appropriate discussions. **After the lights go out**: After the last sip of wine, when we clean up and turn the lights out, if you still haven’t had enough of us, it is typical for a group to get together and go to a local eatery for food and/or drinks or coffee. Again, We look forward to meeting new members and reuniting with old friends. Sincerely, ***Paul Uttermohlen***, **Red 1 Realty** *Your Hilliard Wine Club Host*

...and speaking of breakthrough roles: who can forget the first time we saw Tom Cruise singing Bob Seeger in his underwear? Often considered an updated 1983 version of The Graduate, the movie sparkles with memorable lines and original music. I only regret that I was never told that "Princeton could use someone like Bob..." See the movie first and join us for some "Cruisin'"

**Comedy Night + Open Mic + Freestyle**: Tristan Shae and friends return to entertain us and to warm the group up for our open mic session. February's Open Mic / Comedy Night was a smash hit and it's worth a second night. We'll start with Tristan Shae and a couple of his friends. Tristan is an alternative comic from Columbus, Ohio. A counselor by day, Tristan explores how comedy can improve mental health by telling jokes and stories that muse on how absurd life can be from squeaky clean topics to not so clean ones. Tristan produces the variety show Cheaper Than Therapy, hosts the weekly Problem Child Alt Comedy Open Mic at The Attic, and can be found engaging in all sorts of silliness around the city from stand up shows at The Nest Theater, The Attic, or The Funny Bone, to improv and sketch shows with various groups at various venues such as The Hashtag Comedy Club. **On Freestyle night** \- just bring a bottle to share\.
