Third Place Commons has launched two new clubs as part of their TPC At Home programming, giving you the perfect chance to have fun and connect with your Commons Community in these most stressful of times. Whether you’re a movie lover, a book lover, or both, your Commons community awaits.
Join the TPC Movie Club for a fun monthly conversation about a pre-selected film and just talk movies as well. Talk about what you love, what disappointed you, what’s coming soon, and what you’re watching now.
If books are more your thing, talk books with the Commons Community Book Club. Read recent paperback bestsellers, bring your thoughts on the pick of the month, and share what else you’re reading.
On Tuesday, November 10, 2020 the TPC Movie Club will discuss “Parasite,” the Academy Award winning 2020 Best Picture. A dazzling, funny, and always surprising film, this great movie is part satire, part thriller, and part social commentary that will keep you guessing from start to finish.
Rotten Tomatoes gives the film a 99% and declares, “An urgent, brilliantly layered look at timely social themes, 'Parasite' finds writer-director Bong Joon Ho in near-total command of his craft." (Rated R for sexual content, language, and some violence.)
Where to find it: You can find “Parasite” free on Hulu with subscription, or rent/buy from Xfinity, Amazon, Apple TV, Vudu, and Fandango Now.
REGISTER HERE for the TPC Movie Club, which meets at 7:30pm on the 2nd Tuesday of each month.
Next up, the Commons Community Book Club meets on Wednesday, November 18th to discuss “Daisy Jones and the Six” by Taylor Jenkins Reid.
A New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice, they wrote, “This stylish and propulsive novel, presented in the form of an oral history, explores the ascent of a (fictional) hard-partying, iconic 1970s rock band. It reads like the transcript of a particularly juicy episode of VH1’s ‘Behind the Music.’"
Where to find it: You'll tear through this quick, fun read, so get your copy today and join the conversation on November 18th at 5pm! You can get it from the library, in person at Third Place Books, or order it online (including the audiobook) here.
