FILM CLUB! It’s like a book club…but with movies!

The Yellow Studio Film Club is a group of women who are interested in watching and discussing female-centric stories that have been on the big screen. Each month, a different film will be chosen – selections will vary in terms of genre and time period but will always involve a female-centric theme and/or be written and/or directed by a woman. Once a month the group will meet to discuss the various aspects of the chosen film. Meetings will be informal and open to any YS Member who has a passion, interest and/or curiosity about movies.
 

For our next meeting on Tuesday May 6 at 7pm we will be discussing the selected film, The Last Showgirl, starring Pamela Anderson and Jamie Lee Curtis. Directed by Gia Coppola and written by Kate Gersten.
