SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: The Devil Wears Prada
DESCRIPTION:THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA 2006 109 minutes \nThis look into the New York fashion world has both a sparkle and a distinct edge. The sparkle comes from Anne Hathaway\, who plays a just-out-of-school journalist working for the editor of a prestigious fashion magazine. The edge in this film is Hathaway’s tyrannical editor\, played by Meryl Streep. It has been said that Streep walked away with this film––giving one of the most vibrant performances of her career\, but Stanley Tucci also stands out\, as does Emily Blunt\, who landed a breakout role as Hathaway’s forever exasperated co-worker. \nBE ADVISED–– This film is rated PG-13\, with drinking\, profanity\, sexual overtones\, work-related stress\, a bad encounter with a taxi\, divas\, but no smoking (the film is notable for not depicting any tobacco use in an otherwise nicotine-ridden industry).

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: Man On Wire
DESCRIPTION:MAN ON WIRE (2008)  94 minutes \nIf this documentary comes across as a heist film\, it is totally intentional\, because when Phillipe Petit set out to tight-rope walk between the World Trade Center towers in 1974 — it was an illegal undertaking. Petit and his collaborators planned the stunt like a clockwork robbery and the film covers every nail-biting detail. Man on Wire also offers a fascinating window into a time when the towers were not venerated\, as the majority of New Yorkers considered them an ungainly eyesore\, but Petit took the first steps to change that perception by giving the buildings a human dimension. \nBE ADVISED: This film is rated PG-13 for some sexuality and nudity\, depicting what transpired on August 7\, 1974\, and does not address events that took place on September 11\, 2001. \n

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: The Apartment
DESCRIPTION:NEW YORK ON-SCREEN \n  \nTHE APARTMENT  1960  125 minutes \n  \nVienna-born director Billy Wilder (Sunset Boulevard\, Double Indemnity\, Stalag 17\, Some Like It Hot)\, was known for nothing if not his sardonic style and this film is considered one of his sharpest. Set in a mammoth insurance company\, Jack Lemmon plays a humble office schlub who pines for Shirley MacLaine’s elevator operator\, but he is at the mercy of his bosses\, who sing his praises so long as they can use his Manhattan apartment for their affairs. Enter head boss Fred MacMurray\, who finds out about the arrangement––only to use it for his own affair with MacLaine. \nThe Apartment is a ribald comedy with some hard scenes\, and it should be noted that Fred MacMurray was so convincing as a heel that he was repeatedly accosted by angry fans after the film was released—prompting him to play the lovable father in My Three Sons. \n  \nBE ADVISED–– This film is rated TV-PG\, and contains smoking\, drinking\, period sexual references\, a punch in the nose\, an attempt at self-harm and Eisenhower-era office dynamics.

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC
DESCRIPTION:ON BROADWAY  2019  82 minutes \nReleased just before the pandemic shut public venues down for over a year\, this buoyant documentary by Oren Jacoby offers an overview of Broadway from its nadir in the late 60s to the present. With interviews from a range of luminaries such as Alec Baldwin\, August Wilson\, Helen Mirren\, Christine Baranski\, and Tommy Tune\, the film makes a point to show how art and commerce went hand in hand as various shows revived the theatre experience while larger trends co-opted the culture––as seen in the parallel fortunes of Times Square\, which went from a red-light district to a tourist magnet. \nBE ADVISED: This film depicts New York in all its glamour and grit\, involving urban violence\, profanity\, sexuality\, corporate and municipal avarice––as well as some singing and dancing.

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: A Good Year
DESCRIPTION:A GOOD YEAR  2006  117 minutes \nDirected by Ridley Scott of Alien and Blade Runner fame\, this comparatively “small” film came about when Scott and his neighbor in Provence\, the writer Peter Mayle collaborated on a fish-out-of-water story involving an Englishman who inherits a French vineyard. \nThe premise of the English abroad could be a genre of its own\, with Enchanted April\, A Room with a View\, and The Durrells of Corfu being prime examples. In A Good Year\, the Englishman is of a particularly arrogant variety\, played by Russell Crowe\, a high-wire London financial trader looking to make a quick sale of his uncle’s dilapidated chateau and vineyard. Some very French complications soon arise\, miring Crowe’s character in the nuances of the local culture\, while memories of his curmudgeonly uncle (Albert Finney) and romance with a restauranteur (Marion Cotillard) awaken his better instincts. \nBE ADVISED:  This film is rated PG-13 with smoking\, drinking\, profanity\, sexuality\, and a rather uncomfortable swim in an empty pool. \nPlease RSVP by calling  (781) 786-6165

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ Weston Public Library: On The Basis of Sex
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this film will NOT be screened at the AIC but at the Weston Library Community Room on Thursday\, August 25th at 1:30. \nON THE BASIS OF SEX  2018  120 minutes \nAs a companion piece to the documentary RGB\, this solid biopic stars Felicity Jones as Ruth Bader Ginsburg in two crucial periods of her life. The first part is set in 1956 when she was attending Harvard then Columbia Law Schools\, graduating at the top of her class––only to be denied employment at the all-male law firms of the period. The second part jumps forward to 1970 when she and her husband appealed a tax case on the grounds of sexual bias against a man to set a precedent for overturning the layers of entrenched sexist legal code. \nBE ADVISED–– This film is rated PG with smoking\, drinking\, profanity\, references to sexuality\, and fusty chauvinists in judicial robes. \nPlease RSVP by calling  (781) 786-6165

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: The Journey
DESCRIPTION:THE JOURNEY  2016  94 minutes \nIn 2006\, after years of stalled initiatives\, the Protestant Unionist and Catholic Nationalist leaders of Northern Ireland met in Scotland to hammer out a power sharing agreement. Then Prime Minister Tony Blair and his Irish counterpart Bertie Ahern were desperate to avoid another impasse\, and they contrived a meeting between former IRA hardliner Martin McGuiness (Colm Meaney) and the ferociously doctrinaire politician Ian Paisley (Timothy Spall)\, two men who had never once spoken to each other. What was said in their arranged journey back to Ulster has not been disclosed\, but this film surmises how their encounter played out––all the while under the frantic watch of the British Intelligence establishment. \nBE ADVISED–– This film is rated PG-13 with archival images of sectarian violence\, terse parochial language\, and all manner of political scheming––whether Hibernian or Britannic. \nPlease RSVP by calling  (781) 786-6165

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: Honeyland
DESCRIPTION:HONEYLAND  2019  87 minutes \nOn first impression\, this documentary would strike the viewer as an exceptionally realistic dramatic feature\, as the filmmakers Tamara Kotevska and Ljubomir Stefanov shot 400 hours of footage over three years documenting Hatidže Muratova\, the last of the wild honey gatherers in the North Macedonian mountains. With evocative imagery offering glimpses of nature and human nature\, this film ponders the uneven balance between traditional subsistence and the modern world’s encroachment. \nPlease Note­- this film is in Balkan Turkish\, Macedonian & Serbo-Croatian with subtitles. \nPlease RSVP by calling  (781) 786-6165

SUMMARY:WPL Film Club @ the AIC: The Wings of The Dove
DESCRIPTION:THE WINGS OF THE DOVE 1997 102 minutes \nThis film could be described as one of the best “Merchant & Ivory” films––even if neither of them had anything to do with it. Based on the Henry James novel and with cinematography that could have been by John Singer Sargent\, this film catches both the élan and squalor of the Edwardian era––when falling from society often meant utter destitution. Helena Bonham Carter is at her incandescent best as Kate\, a debutante facing a precarious choice: she can marry the poor journalist she loves (Linus Roache)\, or stay in the good graces of her benevolent but dominating aunt (played by an icy Charlotte Rampling). Instead Kate contrives a third path when she befriends a dying American heiress who is kind\, generous\, and smitten with Kate’s lover. A devil’s bargain is struck when they travel to Venice and Kate steers the man she loves into a relationship with the heiress\, and her pragmatic instincts soon collide with loyalties and desires. \nThis is a radiant film­­––as glorious as it is bittersweet––with the Italian locations never more sublime. \nBE ADVISED\, this film is rated R\, with smoking\, drinking\, drug use\, and brief nudity. \nPlease RSVP by calling  (781) 786-6165
