October Outing: The Intern




The Intern (2015) Poster
If you've enjoyed movies written and/or directed by Nancy Myers (Something's Gotta Give, It's Complicated and many other quirky, upbeat films), you'll likely be glad you joined fellow Movie Club members to see The Intern on October 6. It stars Robert De Niro as a retiree who goes back to work as an intern for company owner Ann Hathaway. Synopsis, trailer, etc. below.


For a change, we'll be seeing the movie at Rainbow Market Square (Front St. just east of Jarvis on north side, entrance in the courtyard beside the north St. Lawrence Market). Yes, the screens are smaller, but it's a funky place that's close to lots of interesting eateries. Sorry if the timing clashes with anyone's class, but the next one was too late for many of us.


Date:          Tuesday, October 6
Time:          Screen - 1:10, meet-up - approx. 20 minutes beforehand)
Restaurant: Bindia Indian Bistro, 16 Market St. (across Front St. from the cinema) www.bindia.ca


As always, there's no need to tell me if you're coming to the movie, but not to eat afterwards. But if you plan to go to Bindia, please notify me by noon Monday, Oct. 6.


Synopsis:  70-year-old widower Ben Whittaker has discovered that retirement isn't all it's cracked up to be. Seizing an opportunity to get back in the game, he becomes a senior intern at an online fashion site, founded and run by Jules Ostin.
