About us
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 Royal Bobcat
The Royal Bobcat, 422 Atwells ave, Providence, RI, USDon't worry, don't worry, there are still two movie-related events to be announced for February. Just announcing the mixer early. Last January we had a mixer at The Royal Bobcat, and it was such a fun time. Don't believe me? Check out these photos from that event (password: pvdmovieclub). So, what a perfect time to revisit this great place!
The mixer will start at 6:30pm at The Royal Bobcat on Sunday, February 22nd. It'll go on as long as people are around, though the official end time will be 9:30pm. 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. In addition to a bevy of delicious alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, The Royal Bobcat also has a cajun food menu called Sadie's On The Bayou.
The mixers are a great way to familiarize yourself more with the group 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.
See you there!

Frankenhooker at AS220 Black Box
AS220 Black Box Theater, 95 Empire Street, Providence, RI, US"We come to this place for magic. We come to Providence Movie Club to laugh, to cry, to care, because we need that—all of us. That indescribable feeling we get when the lights begin to dim and we go somewhere we've never been before. Not just entertained, but somehow reborn—together." -Nicole Kidman
In Frankenhooker, after his fiancée is decapitated by a lawnmower, medical school dropout Jeffrey Franken attempts to resurrect her by assembling the body parts of prostitutes, unwittingly creating a nymphomanical monster.
Join us on Sunday, March 8th for a 7:00pm screening of Frankenhooker 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.
