SUMMARY:Movie Group
DESCRIPTION:The Movie Group meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month. \nVENUE: Dendy Quays Cinema (between Circular Quay and the Opera House) \nCOST: Please buy your ticket when you arrive at the theatre \nRSVP: Iolanda Capodanno and Grace Mroz (contactable on movie.swicsydney@gmail.com) are the Movie Group Convenors but there is no need to RSVP – just come along. Meet before the film in the foyer of the cinema \nAPRES FILM (Optional): After the movie screening\, we meet at Buckley’s Pub/Cafe\, East Circular Quay\, 7 Macquarie Street – a four-minute walk from Dendy Cinema Opera Quays. See the website at https://www.buckleyssydney.com.au \nMovies for this month are shown below. \n10.10am: Amazing Grace G General/Documentary (1hr 28mins) \nFINISH approx 12noon \n10.15am: The NightingaleMA15+ Mature Audiences (2hrs 16mins) \nFINISH approx 12.45pm\n10.30am: Downton Abbey (AD\, CC)PG Parental Guidance (2hrs) \nFINISH approx 12.45pm \n10.10am: AMAZING GRACE-G General/Documentary (1hr 28m) \n \nThe late director Sydney Pollack’s behind-the-scenes documentary about the recording in 1972 of Aretha Franklin’s best-selling album Amazing Grace finally sees the light of day more than four decades after the original footage was shot. \nCast: Aretha Franklin\, Sydney Pollack\, James Cleveland\nDirector: Sydney Pollack\nRelease date: 29 August 2019 \n10.15am: THE NIGHTINGALE-MA15+ Mature Audiences\, Violence (2hrs 16m) \n \nIn 1829\, Claire\, a 21-year-old Irish convict\, chases a British soldier through the rugged Tasmanian wilderness\, bent on revenge for a terrible act of violence he committed against her and her family. She enlists the services of an Aboriginal tracker named Billy\, who is also marked by trauma from his own violence-filled past. \nUltimately\, The Nightingale is a bold and savage film\, dealing with issues that haven’t been explored in such an incendiary fashion since Fred Schepisi’s notorious The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith (1978). Boasting strong performances and superb direction\, this is an important Australian movie that is very much not going to be for everyone. If\, however\, you can handle this dark trip back into Tasmania’s bloody history\, it’s a journey very much worth taking. \nCast: Aisling Franciosi\, Baykali Ganambarr\, Sam Clafin\, Damon Herriman\, Ewen Leslie \nDirector: Jennifer Kent\nRelease date: 29 August 2019 \n10.30am: DOWNTON ABBEY-PG Parental Guidance (2hrs) \n \nIt is 1927 and the Crawleys and their servants prepare for a royal visit from King George V and Queen Mary. \nThe film follows the hugely popular series which ran for six seasons from 2010 to 2015\, offering an exportable social history of Britain between 1912 and 1926. \nCast: Hugh Bonneville\, Maggie Smith\, Michelle Dockery\, Jim Carter \nDirector: Michael Engler \nRelease date: 12 September 2019 \n

SUMMARY:Evening Book Group - “Island of a Thousand Mirrors” by Nayomi Munaweera

Beware as Oxford St renumbers in each suburb\, so walk past 19 Oxford St\, Darlinghurst! \nBy Bus: From the city you can take the following bus routes which all stop opposite the store: 333\, 380\, 440\, or the Metrobus M40. \nBy Car: Parking\nSt Vincent’s Hospital Public Car Park\, Victoria St. Flat rate AUD 11 after 4pm \nAbout the book: \n“Before violence tore apart the tapestry of Sri Lanka and turned its pristine beaches red\, there were two families. Yasodhara tells the story of her own Sinhala family\, rich in love\, with everything they could ask for. As a child in idyllic Colombo\, Yasodhara’s and her siblings’ lives are shaped by social hierarchies\, their parents’ ambitions\, teenage love and\, subtly\, the differences between the Tamil and Sinhala people—but this peace is shattered by the tragedies of war. Yasodhara’s family escapes to Los Angeles. But Yasodhara’s life has already become intertwined with a young Tamil girl’s… \nSaraswathie is living in the active war zone of Sri Lanka\, and hopes to become a teacher. But her dreams for the future are abruptly stamped out when she is arrested by a group of Sinhala soldiers and pulled into the very heart of the conflict that she has tried so hard to avoid – a conflict that\, eventually\, will connect her and Yasodhara in unexpected ways. \nIn the tradition of Michael Ondatjee’s “Anil’s Ghost” and Arundhati Roy’s “The God of Small Things”\, “Island of a Thousand Mirrors” is an emotionally resonant saga of cultural heritage\, heartbreaking conflict and deep family bonds. Narrated in two unforgettably authentic voices and spanning the entirety of the decades-long civil war\, it offers an unparalleled portrait of a beautiful land during its most difficult moment by a spellbinding new literary talent who promises tremendous things to come.” \nSuspenseful\, hopeful\, and ultimately redemptive\, White Chrysanthemum tells a story of two sisters whose love for each other is strong enough to triumph over the grim evils of war. \nBooks for upcoming meetings: \n\n\n\nTitle\nAuthor\nGenre\nDate of meeting\n\n\nSanctuary\nJudy Nunn\nFiction\n4 Nov 2019\n\n\nThe Storied Life of AJ Fikry\nGabrielle Zevin \nContemporary Fiction\n2 Dec 2019\n\n\nAn Autobiography – Agatha Christie\nAgatha Christie\nAutobiography\n6 Jan 19\n\n\n\n
