say it ain’t so
As you all know by now, February event has been cancelled. (Feel better, zee). Since we’re all nice people, we will allow Zaneta a chance to hostess again in March. Our event will take place the 4th Saturday of the month. I will keep you posted as I am apprised of the plans. I do hope to see each and every one of you.

Ladies, I do apologize for the delay in getting our movie of the month out to you. It would appear that February is NOT the most exciting month for new releases. Our original selection for this week, Black Snake Moan, will not be released this weekend as originally scheduled. I believe that the studio realized that they really needed to put some more money into actually marketing this movie. As a result, this will be coming out the following weekend which, unless a future hostess chooses this, puts this out of the running for one of our movies of the month. Having said that…I. AM. EXTREMELY. EXCITED. about our hostess Zaneta’s final selection. Seriously. I have heard so many remarkable things about this selection, which has been coiined “An adult fairy tale”. This movie, that many haven’t even heard of has garnered SIX academy award nomination which is EXTRAORDINARY for a foreign language film. I do hope that you will join us on the incredible adventure that is PAN’S LABRYINTH. Details are included in our events section. I look forward to seeing you all this weekend and I definitely look forward to sharing this amazing film with you.
Until then,
L
…has it been a month already?
Hello!
You know, as I was discussing with this month’s hostess some options for our movie selection this month, I started thinking about my motivation for starting this group. First and foremost I LOVE MOVIES. Its that simple. I find it amazing to think that someone’s imagination and creativity can come to fruition in such a way. I DREAM of the day that I can get my thoughts together and just create that way. So when it comes to watching movies, I find that I’m a bit of a whore in my selection process. Pretty much anything goes. I’m not saying that I love all movies, but I can say that I’m pretty much open to trying as many out as I can. That’s why Sunday mornings often find me at the theatre trying to catch up on everything that I’ve missed. This movie club was created so that we could experience as much as we can together. I know that most have their favorite genre: If I had to choose, I’d choose indie flicks as a favorite. Maybe you’re into romantic comedies, or horror movies. Regardless of what your favorite is, my hopes are that we will be open minded enough to share in the choices of everyone else. This month’s selection, Black Snake Moan, is a gritty film given to us by the same folks who brought us Hustle and Flow. Its not one of the blockbuster, glossy, mainstream movies. It might be good. It might not be. I do know that I’ve seen the trailer and if nothing else its going to be INTERESTING. Movies like will definitely keep the conversation going at our dinner after. I do hope that you all will join us this month. I’m definitely looking forward to the experience. I hope you are as well.
Until then,
L.
