had a couple of v pleasant movie watching experiences with others and realized I have been missing out on one of life’s utmost pleasures, watching movies in a group setting. to remedy this, I am starting to screen movies on a schedule, two evenings a week, for myself, my neighbors (I live in a small apt complex), and select others to drop in on when they feel like.
seeking recommendations along two lines:
-
What movies have you watched in a group setting that have absolutely killed?
-
Every month will have a theme, and for November the theme is “just to feel” - v emotional movies. Doesn’t have to be super sad, it could be joyful, but preferably not a children’s/family film or an anime (sorry just not my thing, though there are exceptions of course - you can’t do an emotional movies program without Grave of the Fireflies)


On 1.
Sovereign with Nick Offerman, brilliant movie, but heavy
On 2.
The Notebook, which is unfortunately sad (and a romance movie) but I can heartily recommend it
