The first guide to starting and maintaining a film group.
If you've ever wanted to be in a film club but didn't know how to get started, choose films, and keep discussions going, this is the book for you. Here, Maryanne Vandervelde offers advice on
how to deal with problems that might arise, including unforeseen pitfalls, uncooperative discussants, and scheduling conflicts.
But it's the close friendships and fascinating discussions over the years that explain why her group is still going strong more than seven years after it was founded. She has compiled
reflections on what they have learned, a breakdown of all the movies they've discussed, and suggestions for movie rentals, with accompanying issues and discussion topics to get the ball
rolling.
Fun and informative, Films and Friends is a warm and entertaining guide full of everything you need to know about starting and maintaining a movie group.
