Greetings!
For those of you who are new to the site....welcome! In addition to the website and weekly e- newsletter, We also have a little thing called "FilmRadar Field Trips." The concept is simple. We choose a film and invite everyone to attend as a group. We meet up, watch the movie and then go out for drinks or food afterward. Everyone is welcome. It's a great way to socialize and meet fellow film lovers!

WHAT:
A MIGHTY HEART
On January 23, 2002, Mariane Pearl's world changed forever. Her husband Daniel, South Asia bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal, was researching a story on shoe bomber Richard Reid. The story drew them to Karachi where a go-between had promised access to an elusive source. Danny (Dan Futterman) left for the meeting but never returned. In the face of death, Danny's spirit of defiance and his unflinching belief in the power of journalism led Mariane (Angelina Jolie) to write a memoir about his disappearance, the intense effort to find him and his eventual murder. Directed by Michael Winterbottom (Welcome to Sarajevo).
Watch the trailer
Tickets are $11.00 and can be purchased at the theatre or online.
After the film we will vote on a location for dinner and discussion.
See what the critics are saying:
"A taut, meticulously crafted police procedural. Part thriller, part melodrama, A Mighty Heart recalls last year's United 93 in its technical prowess and artistry, and in its harrowing emotional arc."
-Ann Hornaday
Washington Post
"A compelling, intellectually and emotionally engaging film."
-James Rocchi
