What we’re about
Going to the movies used to be a thing I did by myself. But lately I've rediscovered how much fun it is to go with friends and to talk about it with them afterwards. So, here we are!
Providence Movie Club is a group where we'll go to a movie and then grab a drink after it's over to hang out and chat. I'm pretty omnivorous with my movie taste, so one week we could see something at the Avon, and the next be front and center at Morbius. Post-movie will change as well and hit bars, coffee shops, breweries, boba tea places, etc.
Don't worry about being a film expert or anything. I imagine conversations will go like most book clubs where you talk about the book for seven minutes and then everyone drops it.
See you at the movies!

Movie Club Mixer at The XO Bar
XO Bar, 125 North Main St.,, Providence, RI, USOne of our favorite places to have mixers is at The XO Bar. So, what better place to celebrate the new year than there?
The mixers are a great and fun way to familiarize yourself more with Movie Club and its members. As a reminder, there's no movie portion, only the hanging out part. Old members, new members, and anyone who has wanted to check out the group is welcome! It's just a space for people to socialize, no pressure.
The event will start at 7:00pm at The XO Bar on Wednesday, January 28th. It'll end at 10:0pm. I'll have a pile of name tags on a table for everyone to help differentiate who's there for the mixer and who's just there. The XO Bar has alcoholic and non-alcoholic options for you all, as well as a few snacks. The mixer will be in the room next to the main bar area.
Hope to see you there!

The Brood at AS220 Black Box
AS220 Black Box Theater, 95 Empire Street, Providence, RI, US"Oh it's February, maybe Sean will play a cute movie for love month." Well, um, sorry. We're back at AS220 and this time playing David Cronenberg's The Brood from 1979!
In The Brood, a man tries to uncover an unconventional psychologist’s therapy techniques on his institutionalized wife, while a series of brutal attacks committed by a brood of mutant children coincides with the husband’s investigation.
Join us on Wednesday, February 11th for a 7:00pm screening of The Brood at the AS220 Black Box theater. Doors open at 6:45pm, and we'll start the movie around 7:00ish. For anyone interested, we'll go to the AS220 bar afterwards to hang out (or someplace else downtown depending on the mood).
This is a ticketed event, and tickets are $7 each. You can pay with cash or card at the door. AS220 will soon have a preorder link up as well if you want to go down that route. Feel free to drop a comment if you get lost or have any questions. The Black Box theater is located at 95 Empire Street in downtown Providence, to the right of the AS220 bar.
