Itinerary:
  • 5:30PM - Meet-up in front of the theatre for an optional pre-event dinner at a local restaurant. I will let those familiar with the area pick the place. Please indicate in the notes section when signing up if you are interested in grabbing a bite to eat before the movie.

  • 6:40PM - Event meet-up in the lobby area of the theatre and look for the person with the blue TOC folder.

  • 6:55PM - Movie showtime.

  • Afterwards we can discuss the movie at a local eatery or this being a work/school night, I won't hold it against if you have to go home early.

    What it's about: The movie tells the story of a war veteran (Tommy Lee Jones), his wife (Susan Sarandon) and the search for their son, a soldier who recently returned from Iraq but has mysteriously gone missing, and the police detective (Charlize Theron) who helps in the investigation.

    Canadian Connection: Canadian Paul Haggis (Creator of Canadian TV series "Due South") directs from his original screenplay based on a story by Mark Boal and Haggis. This will be Haggis' directing follow-up to the Academy Award-winning "Crash." In addition to the Oscar-winning screenplay for “Crash,” his recent writing credits include the award-winning "Million Dollar Baby," for which he received an Academy Award-nomination for Best Screenplay, and current releases "The Last Kiss," "Flags of Our Fathers," "Casino Royale" and "Letters From Iwo Jima. Paul Haggis is currently writing the next James Bond movie script.

    Yes, downtown Toronto, a treat for those of us who want to be close to home. (Not so much for the organizer...)

    Note: You will be responsible for buying your own tickets at the theatre.
