Films and Friends: Starting and Maintaining a Movie Group
The first guide to starting and maintaining a film group. If you've ever wanted to be in a film club but didn't know how to get started, choose films, and keep discussions going, this is the book for you. Here, Maryanne Vandervelde offers advice on how to deal with problems that might arise, including unforeseen pitfalls, uncooperative discussants, and scheduling conflicts. But it's the close friendships and fascinating discussions over the years that explain why her group is still going strong more than seven years after it was founded. She has compiled reflections on what they have learned, a breakdown of all the movies they've discussed, and suggestions for movie rentals, with accompanying issues and discussion topics to get the ball rolling. Fun and informative, Films and Friends is a warm and entertaining guide full of everything you need to know about starting and maintaining a movie group.

Rated 5 starsFilm Groups: The Next Big Wave
By Thriftbooks.com User,
What a great idea! After reading this book, I am definitely planning to start a movie group. I've talked it over with several friends and we think it would really be fun to get several couples together and try it. Even though we work, we all go to movies at once a month. This book makes it easy to start a group and gives lots of ideas of good movies.

Rated 5 starsFilms Groups: Great Idea for Friends
By Thriftbooks.com User,
This is a great book for starting a film group of friends. I truly believe that, especially for baby boomers, film groups are the coming new thing. What a great way to keep your mind active and at the same time have fun with friends! The book is short, very well writen and has lots of good ideas and clever chapters. I highly recommend it to everyone.
