Smoke Signals/Everything Is Illuminated

September 30, 2008

Next movie club is coming soon. Are we all OK with the 3rd saturday of the month? That would mean our next club is on Oct. 18th.
James Love has picked our movie combo, and will be hosting at the Barber Haus.

After careful deliberation, we’ve settled on a road movies with young men theme. You know how James loves his young men movies. =)

Homework:

Smoke Signals
Young Indian man Thomas is a nerd in his reservation, wearing oversize glasses and telling everyone stories no-one wants to hear. His parents died in a fire in 1976, and Thomas was saved by Arnold. Arnold soon left his family (and his tough son Victor), and Victor hasn’t seen his father for 10 years. When Victor hears Arnold has died, Thomas offers him funding for the trip to get Arnold’s remains, but only if Thomas will also go with him. Thomas and Victor hit the road.

Movie Club:

Everything is Illuminated
A young Jewish American man endeavors to find the woman who saved his grandfather during World War II in a Ukrainian village, that was ultimately razed by the Nazis, with the help of a local who speaks weirdly funny broken English.

Drama, James, Road Movie @ 1:48 am
