FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JULY 2018 35 Counter Culture Cinema Come join us for two films you may have missed in the movie theaters: one is a documentary about a star of old Hollywood and the other is a well-reviewed small film. Our first monthly screening, on Sunday, July 8 at 6 pm, is the film Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story (USA 2017, 1 hr. 30 min., English). Here is a brief description from IMDb.com: "Hedy Lamarr was a Hollywood movie star who was hailed as the most beautiful and glamorous in the world. However, that was only the surface that tragically obscured her astounding true talents. Foremost of them was her inventive genius that a world blinded by her beauty could not recognize as far back as her youth in Austria with her homemade gadgets. This film explores Lamarr's life which included escaping a loveless marriage on the eve of Nazi Germany's conquest of her nation to a new career in Hollywood. However, her intellectual contributions were denied their due even when she offered them in the service of her new home during World War II. Only much later in her life would Lamarr learn that her staggering aptitude created brilliant engineering concepts that revolutionized telecommunications." Our second monthly screening, on Sunday, July 22 at 6 pm, is the film Humor Me (USA 2017, 1 hr. 33 min., English). Here is a brief description from IMDb.com: "A once-acclaimed New York playwright, Nate, is struggling to finish his new play when his wife leaves him, taking their son. Desolate, broke and unable to pay the rent, Nate begrudgingly moves in with his widowed father, Bob (Elliott Gould), in his New Jersey retirement golf community. Bob, always quick with a joke, uses humor to deal with all of life's challenges, even the death of his beloved wife. It drives Nate crazy." 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.
