Film Club: Promising Young Woman

August 12 @ 7:00 pm
Free

 

 

 

FILM CLUB! It’s like a book club…but with movies! Hosted by Beth Spitalny.

 

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 August 12 at 7pm we will be discussing the selected film, Promising Young Woman starring Carey Mulligan and written and directed by Emerald Fennell.

This meetup will be a special offsite shindig at the home of Kate Berg in South Salem, NY. A sign up sheet will be shared to bring a food item for the group. Kate’s address and parking instructions will be provided upon RSVP. ⁠

PROMISING YOUNG WOMAN, 2020 (click the link to watch a trailer) 

Nothing in Cassie’s life is what it appears to be – she’s wickedly smart, tantalizingly cunning, and she’s living a secret double life. Now, an unexpected encounter is about to give Cassie a chance to right the wrongs from the past.

This film can be watched on Amazon and Apple TV. Trouble finding a way to watch? Don’t hesitate to reach out to Beth at bspitalny@gmail.com for guidance.
