Welcome to MusicEd921's Movie Club!
Here's how the movie club will work:
-We will view movies on a bi-weekly basis
-Each month will be a new theme
-I will try and pair the movie with a beer or wine (nothing too specific given we all live in different places)
-I'll keep a list in this first post of previously viewed movies along with the dates
-We'll get started this Saturday 3/24/18 with a one off movie and then starting in April we'll do a theme of the month
Here's a calendar for the themes and possible films to view. I'll update as we go forward. (STILL UPDATING)
FIRST MOVIE: A Netflix Original - Okja
April - Spying on Hitch (Hitchcock Spy Films): Foreign Cooresponsdent/The 39 Steps
May - Would You Like Some Parm on Your Spaghetti Western? (Lesser Known Acclaimed Spaghetti Westerns): The Grand Duel/Companeros
June - A Slice of Kurosawa (Akira Kurosawa Epics): The Seven Samurai/The Hidden Fortress
July - The Silent Treatment (Classic Silent Films): The General/City Lights
August - Double Take (An Original and its Remake): TBD
September - X Marx the Spot (Classic Marx Brothers): Duck Soup/A Night at the Opera
October - Vispera de Todos los Santos (Spanish Halloween films): The Devil’s Backbone/The Orphanage
November - Free For All (Hidden gems in the public domain): Charade/Algiers
December - Santa Slays (Christmas Horror): Better Watch Out/Sint
January - These Movies are a Knockout (Boxing Films): Raging Bull/Creed
February - Sing us a Song (Newer Musicals): La La Land/The Greatest Showman
March - So Lynchian (David Lynch Films): Lost Highway/Mulholland Drive

I’ve been hoping to do something like this for a while, so I figured I’d pitch it here and see what you guys think.
I’ve always wanted to be part of a movie club where we can watch and discuss different movies. In some cases I’m on this site several times a day just checking in, so why not meld the two?
Here’s what I propose.....we can discuss the logistics of who picks or if we vote later, but basically we can check in either weekly, biweekly, or monthly and discuss whatever the chosen movie was. We don’t need to be limited to anything in particular, but something outside of the usual Star Wars/Superhero/LOTR stuff we see all over this site. I’m hoping for it to be a good way to get into some really in-depth conversations while seeing movies that may be outside of my radar.
Thoughts?
