Trillsters,
Please join me this Thursday for a viewing of The Lives of Others, a 2006-2007ish German film from writer-director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck. It's a bit dark and was underrated at the time, in my opinion. Some of you may have seen it, but I checked with others last time and I think at least 1/2 of the group hasn't. General lay of the land: it's set in East Berlin in the 1980s when government surveillance/Stasi were in every shadow -- and it specifically follows the lives of a few key characters who fall under investigation.I don't think it's on Netflix Instant, but I'll figure out the logistics with Ben!
Thursday, House Garry, 7pm. We'll have pizza -- please bring beverages. Let me know if this works for you (and if like a million of you have already seen it!).

I have to be out of town Wed-Fri of this week, so I'll miss. Have a great time!
ReplyDeleteI have not seen it and count me in (I would still come even if I had seen it just to hang out and have pizza and stuff)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to watching it again with y'all. I think the last time I saw it was in the theater. Oh, and in the paranoid spirit of the film I'm planning on bugging house Garry while I pretend to use the restroom at some point in the evening. After all, we have to be vigilant for any signs of threats to the state.
ReplyDeleteSo basically what is happening is that I will be watching this movie with y'all and Rory will be listening to me poop through a secret earpiece. Have at it buddy.
