Considering the cool turn to the weather, I certainly hope everybody’s power 
and heat situation is back to normal. Alice and I were extremely fortunate, but 
lots of people had a pretty uncomfortable and frustrating week last week. I 
hope everybody is planning to be at tomorrow’s meeting at RRSQ at 10:00.

 

I know I have been lobbying for “1945,” but I am on the mailing list for 
Menemsha Films and they have been sending me promotional e-mail about the film. 
This is the second time they have sent me this excerpted scene from “1945.” I 
think it does a pretty good job of establishing the tone for how the town is 
responding to the arrival of the two Jews. You may also want to read the Film 
Comment online article focusing on “1945.” 
https://www.filmcomment.com/blog/deep-focus-1945/ The only caveat I would make ;
about it is that it definitely needs to be shared with a [Spoiler Alert 
Warning!]. I don’t think there’s a lot it holds back in describing what happens 
in the film.

 

Anyway looking forward to seeing everybody tomorrow!

 

Joel

On a summer day in 1945, an Orthodox man and his grown son arrive in a small 
village in Hungary while the villagers prepare for the wedding of the town 
clerk's son. The townspeople – suspicious, remorseful, fearful, and cunning – 
expect the worst and behave accordingly. 

A superb ensemble cast, lustrous black and white cinematography, and 
historically detailed art direction contribute to an eloquent drama that 
reiterates Thomas Wolfe’s famed sentiment: you can’t go home again.
