Dear Cinema Sundays patrons. We are Back! Having been forced by mother nature to cancel last week Cinema Sundays returns with the very fine independent drama Fish tank. Winner of a jury prize at Cannes and two British Independent Film Awards, Fish Tank is currently sporting an 88% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes.com. The best news is that there will be no shoveling during the film and there is parking inside across the street! Bring your valentine to our special ‘end of the snowpocalypse’ film celebration.

Our speaker for this week is Mike Giuliano, the ace of the Cinema Sundays speaking staff. It’s a pleasure to welcome him back to Cinema Sundays.


Looking forward to seeing you on the 14th.

If you’ve never been to Cinema Sundays before, see below for our stimulating, updated, yet official description.


Precisely at 9:45 on a given Sunday morning, while birds chirp in the most musical manner, the doors at the Charles Theatre swing open to reveal a lobby replete with tasty bagels, hot coffee and friendly volunteers ready to serve them to you. All of our volunteers have been pre-tested for a complete lack of morning grouchiness and provide the nicest service…within reason!

Guarded carefully by the enormous lobby penguin bagels, coffee and scintillating yet improvised conversation continues until 10:30. At precisely 10:30:07 some brief opening remarks by yours truly will be followed by a few remarks from our guest speaker who will never do either of two things. First he or she will never ever give away the plot of the film and second the speaker will not go on too long…especially if the film is one of those 2.5 h our Soviet era documentaries on the Romance of the Seven Tractor Drivers.

Following a brief admonition not to talk during the film and a recommendation to sublet your cell phone to a starving student from the third world the screening will take place. Upon completion of the screening a robust question and answer session featuring our guest speaker will include your fascinating observations upon the recently screened movie.

This flowery description barely describes the sublime joy and excitement which is Cinema Sundays. If there is a better way to spend Sunday mornings it simply hasn’t occurred to me….yet!
