FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | MARCH 2015 41
Counter Culture Cinema
The Counter Culture Cinema Club has twice-monthly
screenings of movies you may not find at your Cineplex: indie
films, foreign films, documentaries, etc. Check us out!
Our first March screening, on Sunday, March 8 at 6 pm, is
the film Words and Pictures (USA 2013, 111 minutes, English;
postponed from Feb. 22). Here is a brief description from
IMDB.com: "A flamboyant English teacher (Clive Owen) and
a new, stoic art teacher (Juliette Binoche) collide at an upscale
prep school. A high-spirited courtship begins and she finds
herself enjoying the battle. Another battle they begin has the
students trying to prove which is more powerful, the word or
the picture. But the true war is against their own demons, as
two troubled souls struggle for connection."
Our second March screening, on Sunday, March 22 at 6 pm,
is the film Locke (USA 2013, 85 minutes, English). Here is a
brief description from IMDB.com: "Leaving the construction
site on the eve of a major project, construction manager Ivan
Locke receives news that sends him driving the two hours from
Birmingham to London, but even further from the life he once
knew. Making the decision that he has to make, he then calls
his wife, his sons, his co-workers and boss telling them the
secret that he is bearing and trying to keep his job and family
intact. But even more importantly, he will have to face himself
and the choices he has made."
All of our screenings are followed by lively discussion about
the film; we'd love to have you join us. The Lodge Theatre has
very limited seating, so if you're interested in our screenings,
come early; we hope to see you there. Please note that all films
announced are subject to availability. If you have any questions
about the Counter Culture Cinema Club or want to recommend
a film, please email Micki Rosen at michelesrosen@gmail.com.
