Then, beginning in April, the 3^rd and 4^th Mondays: April 20 & April 27.

Do you love movies?  Join the Movie club!  Every month we’ll watch a movie together and then meet up to talk about it!

One meeting will be the movie and one will be discussion about it and also general movie discussion.  What’s your favorite genre?  What are your top 10 favorites?  What actor or actress will you see in any movie!  Let’s discuss!  We’ll do this like a book club where we decide as a group which movies to watch.

Lesley will pick a favorite of hers for Monday, March 23^rd and discussion will be the 30^th.  The movie is The Prestige with Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale, Michael Caine, and Scarlett Johansson.  This movie will begin promptly at 1pm as it’s a little over 2 hours.
