We had a nice group in the park and were joined by three new attendees: Robin, Reid, and Vicki.
We will be using a pin-on name tag for summer outdoor meetings
Each person is responsible for bringing theirs to meetings.
We will continue to use the prop-up names for the table meetings.
The movie for our August 11 meeting will be the long-delayed "One Battle After Another"
Bill will lead the discussion.
We will meet in the park, but as usual, watch for last-minute weather alerts.
Start time is 5:30 pm, for socializing. The meeting starts at 6:00 pm.
Our discussion of "Penguin Lessons" ensued, and most participants had not seen this movie.
Everyone was pleased to discover this movie and explore its themes of friendship, bonding, and unity amid an uprising.
We had a suggestion for the September meeting by Robin for the 2018 movie "BlacKkKlansman”.
This is an excellent, Oscar-winning film (Best Adapted Screenplay) with a top cast.
It explores themes of both racism and antisemitism.
Laurie had forgotten that we had actually discussed this film earlier, in September 2022.
Normally we would NOT discuss a movie a second time. But it is an excellent movie, and most of our current members were not then members. So, with this exception, we will discuss this on September 8, after Labor Day.
To this point, all of our previously viewed films can be found on the webpage under the "Previously Discussed Films" tab.
Please take a look at the list, both to note what movies we have seen, and if you are looking for a good movie to see.
We refer to this list at all times.
See you on August 14th!
