We will view and discuss a highly-acclaimed foreign film. Many of them will be first-run features. These films will come from across the globe, and cover a host of genres; the only commnality: they'll all be outstanding features. From time to time, I'll throw in an old favorite. Please call me if you have any suggestions. Note: Since we will be meeting after the library proper is closed, doors will open at 6:45 p.m., and close at 7:05 p.m.
