It was great to revisit this classic tonight! Bob Rafelson’s Five Easy Pieces packs so much color and depth into a rather short 98 minute package. We had a great turnout too.

On another note, I’m going to rethink the popcorn policy here. Every Friday morning, I throw so much uneaten popcorn out. As cute as it is for me to deliver popcorn to each sofa, it appears that not everyone wants it. I think I’ll just set it out on the side bar, and folks can help themselves. I know… first world problems!

Speaking of which, tonight’s animated short was the disturbingly poignant story of an immigrant’s futile attempt to make a new life in a first world country: Paper or Plastic, directed by Nata Metlukh
