A friend of mine is a really big movie buff and she decided that we needed a movie club. Thus was born "Focus Group".
Each month she names a theme and one film that really demonstrates it well. Then the rest of us in the club chat and settle on a second film. Two films a month. Not so difficult.
But also, because it's funny, we have an optional 3rd bonus film. That film is ALWAYS a Nicholas Cage film that fits the theme as best as we can.
Here's what we've watched so far this year:
A Man Escaped (1956)
Papillon (1973)
Bonus: The Rock (1996)
The Core (2003)
Independence Day (1996)
Bonus: Knowing (2009)
Tampopo (1985)
Babette's Feast (1987)
Bonus: Pig (2021)
And this month we will be watching
LA Story (1991)
Before Sunrise (2004)
Bonus: Moonstruck (1987)
I should add some reviews, huh? That could be doable. I wonder if I should dust off my old review technique!
