Our first April screening, on Sunday, April 12 at 6 pm, is the film The Past (USA 2013, 130 minutes, French with English subtitles). Here is a brief description from IMDB.com: "Coming back to accomplish the divorce procedure, Ahmad, an Iranian man, arrives in Paris after four years to meet his ex-wife and her daughters from her previous marriage. He notices his ex is in a relationship with an Arab named Samir, who also has a son and a wife in a coma. The relationship of the older daughter and her mother is in deterioration because the daughter thinks her mother is the cause of Samir's wife's comatose state. The affair gets more complicated when the older daughter discloses something heinous she has done." Our second April screening, on Sunday, April 26 at 6 pm, is the film Love is Strange (USA 2014, 94 minutes, English). Here is a brief description from IMDB.com: "After nearly four decades together, Ben and George finally tie the knot in an idyllic wedding ceremony in lower Manhattan. But when George loses his job soon after, the couple must sell their apartment, and — victims of the relentless New York City real estate market — temporarily live apart until they can find an affordable new home. While George moves in with two cops who live downstairs, Ben lands in Brooklyn with his nephew, his wife and their temperamental teenage son, with whom Ben shares a bunk bed. While struggling with the pain of separation, Ben and George are further challenged by the intergenerational tensions and capricious family dynamics of their new living arrangements." 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.
