The Will O'Neill Film Screening Collective

The Will O'Neill Film Screening Collective is going to be a loosely scheduled series of film screenings at my apartment. Basically, every so often, I'm going to sit down to watch a really good film and invite whoever wants to watch it to come join me. It's going to be very informal, just sitting around watching movies on DVD or Blu-Ray. They won't be planned out very far in advance, maybe just a week or so. I'll be posting each notice here on this blog, and you can also join the Facebook group. So, if you see a film posted and you think you might want to watch it, come on over. Bring some snacks or something to drink if you want, or otherwise just bring yourself. The films will be scheduled at variable times; some will be on weekends, some on weekdays, some in the afternoon, some in the evening, and maybe even a few late at night. I'm going to try to do one every couple of weeks or so, but they may be more frequent during times like the holidays.

The first screening is this Thursday at 8, with Lars Von Trier's film Europa. Other films that may be screened in the future include:

Paris, Texas
Last Year at Marienbad
Cat People
To Live and Die In L.A.
The Searchers
Down By Law

and other films by directors such as:

Ingmar Bergman
Martin Scorsese
Alfred Hitchcock
Jean-Luc Godard
Michael Mann
Werner Herzog

Also, if people have suggestions, send them along and I might include them on the schedule.
