The Film Fest is back! Join Will Craig and your fellow MCC members for a fabulous time at the movies!. Afterward, enjoy good food and lively conversation at a Dutch-treat dinner! Members are welcome to join us for the movie, dinner, or both.
The movie we will be seeing is "Right In The Eye: Live Movie-Concert of Georges Méliès Films."
Right in the Eye is a live performance set to 12 films by Georges Méliès, a pioneer of the Cinema and a wizard of special effects. Created by Jean-François Alcoléa and praised by the Great-Great-Granddaughter of legendary filmmaker and cinematographer Georges Méliès, Right in the Eye features a captivating, multi-layered score performed by three virtuoso musicians, offering an amazing emotional voyage. Using an extraordinary range of instruments—including piano, percussion, guitar, and unique oddities like the aquaphone, theremin, and even plastic take-out lids—the musicians bring new life to Méliès' films. Their mesmerizing music evokes the technical wizardry and playful creativity that defined his work.
We will meet at MSP Film @ the Main for the movie, followed by a Dutch treat dinner at Aster House to discuss the movie. If you've already seen the movie, but would like to meet us at the restaurant at 5:45 pm, please let us know by answering the question that will pop up.
Members are welcome to join us for the movie, dinner, or both. The movie runs for 75 minutes and starts at 4:00 pm. We will meet at 3:45 pm at the theatre.
