Department of shameless self-promotion: Talk Cinema at the Coolidge Corner Theatre

 As if feteing Jonathan Demme with the Coolidge Award was not enough, the Theatre will also be hosting yours truly as the guest speaker for their Talk Cinema series. They will be screening an as yet unseen (except by me!) film after which I will delight and regale you with my scintillating insights followed by your own illuminating comments and engrossing discussion. I am sworn to secrecy about the identity of the film but I can tell you up front that it will a) not be by James Cameron and b) will not feature chipmunks. See you there!

(It's on Sunday, December 6 at 10 am. The Coolidge is at 290 Harvard St, Brookline | 617.734.2501.)
