Hello and welcome to a quick introduction to a new project I’ll be doing!
Surprise, surprise: It’s a movie club.
I’ve had such a great time with my IRL movie club, SCAM Girls, that I wanted to try an online version.
Basically the idea is I will program a theme each month and give some info about it, share some articles/videos for a deeper analysis, give my thoughts, and foster discussion around these movies.
I’ll always try to have a healthy mix of movie new to me and ones I’ve seen before, as well as trying to make sure they are easily accessible.
For this first month, I’m taking a cue from a SCAM Girls member (Stanley Swindling - author of i could care less) and doing a love themed month in honor of Valentine’s Day.
The theme?
Love Triangles
The movies?
Casablanca | 1942
Stream: Max
The Graduate | 1967
Stream: The Criterion Channel
Y Tu Mamá También | 2001
Stream: AMC+
The Favourite | 2018
These are also available for easy digital rentals on most major movie rental websites-i.e., Amazon, Google, YouTube, Vudu.
I would also highly encourage you to check your local library. Many will have more than you think, or be able to get copies through the Inter Library Loan service.
That’s it for now. Movie club posts will come out Saturday mornings and on the last Saturday of the month, I’ll announce the following month’s theme/picks!
I’m very excited to start this and hope you are too!
Thanks for reading. Til next time!
