Men's Group meetup

Sat, Nov 7, 3:00 PM

From Columbus Mens Group

4.9

**The idea for this group is to build a community where men can gather together and build connections & learn and grow from each other.** How we start each meeting is by each of us checking in with our "roses and thorns" aka what are the good things and the bad things going on in your life recently? Then we will go into a topic discussion. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **COMMUNITY AGREEMENTS** \*\*THERE WILL BE A ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY FOR NO-SHOWS. IF YOU RSVP TO A MEETING AND FAIL TO SHOW UP WITHOUT NOTICE, YOU'LL BE REMOVED FROM THE GROUP. THIS IS TO PRESERVE THE INTEGRITY OF THE GROUP\*\* 1. Confidentiality - EVERYTHING that is shared NEVER leaves this space so that this space remains safe and sacred. There is a zero tolerance policy for this. If a man is in violation of this, they will be permanently removed from the group. 2. Non-Judgement - we respect and honor every man’s truth so that we may receive the same from others. While we may not agree on everything, we commit to respecting every man’s perspectives and engaging in honorable discussion with one another. 3. Be committed - honor your commitment to this group and to yourself. If you attend a meeting, please commit yourself fully to the meeting. Also be committed to your own journey. When we fail, we own it & clean it up. 4. Speak from the heart - this is NOT a space to “look good”, have the “right” answers, and have it all together. Relax and know you are not alone. Be exactly who you are within the safety of this space. 5. Be supportive - This means always willing to provide encouragement to your fellow men, encourage action and momentum in each other’s lives.. Be willing to challenge each other. Be willing to hold each other accountable. 6. Participation - what you receive from this community will be a reflection of what you put into it. Period. We ask that you share your perspectives, reflect on others, and give/receive support when and where it’s needed.

Oscar Watch: FJORD at the Drexel Theatre!

Sun, Nov 1, 8:30 PM

From The Columbus Movie Group

4.7

Join us as we get together to see the Palme d’Or winner from this year’s Cannes Film Festival, FJORD! This dramatic-legal-thriller-drama is based on a true story of a Romanian-Norwegian couple facing scrutiny after moving to the wife's remote Norwegian hometown. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: The film is inspired by true events and follows a Romanian-Norwegian conservative couple who faced scrutiny after moving to the wife's progressive remote Norwegian hometown. The film is written/directed by Cristian Mungiu and stars Sebastian Stan and Renate Reinsve (Sentimental Value, The Worst Person in the World). BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered at this year’s Cannes Film Festival where it received a 12-minute standing ovation and went on to win the Palme d'Or (top prize) along with four other awards! The film is earning a stellar 93% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes where critics call it a “riveting,” “superbly well-acted” and “knotty moral dilemma” that "refuses to provide easy answers.” Others call it a quiet film with a lot to say that’s both "richly compelling” and “endlessly though-provoking!” It was selected as the Romanian entry for the Best International Feature Film (and is currently the front-runner) for next year’s Academy Awards. FANTASTIC FEATURETTE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3c27MmOyxg TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gdRZZVoinM PLAN: We’ll plan for a 4:00pm-ish showing and will meet in the theater lobby about 20 minutes before showtime. Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater. Just let them know you're with the group for admission and concession discounts ($3 sm popcorn, $3 sm soda). A longer movie and we've got big dinner/movie events the week before/after, so we'll plan to make this one a movie only event. Exact showtime and complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Should be a good one, Dan

Fri, Nov 6, 10:15 PM

From The Columbus Movie Group

4.7

Join us as we get together to see a dark-comedy-dramatic-thriller and that rare combination of films that’s a heavy Oscar contender and wildly entertaining, WILD HORSE NINE! The film is written/directed by Martin McDonagh and follows a pair of CIA agents as they face a trust-testing mission from Santiago to Easter Island during 1973 in Chile. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Shortly before the 1973 Chilean coup d'etat, two CIA officers are sent from Santiago to Easter Island. Among the island's iconic statues, the longtime partners wrestle with their dark pasts and present conspiracies, while one’s newfound bond with a pair of rebellious students threatens to send everyone's trip to this remote paradise sideways. The film is written/directed by Martin McDonagh (In Bruges, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri, The Banshees of Inisherin) and stars John Malkovich, Sam Rockwell, Steve Buscemi, Tom Waits and Parker Posey. TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Haw_sznA5aQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Haw_sznA5aQ) BUZZ & ACCLAIM: Wild Horse Nine premiered to a rapturous response at this year’s Venice International Film Festival where John Malkovich won the Volpi Cup for Best Actor! It is earning a stellar 94% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where critics call it “intelligent, superb filmmaking” with an “expert blend of poignant drama and blistering dark comedy” and featuring some of the best performances ever “by Malkovich, Rockwell and Buscemi.” This is one of those rare movies that's actually fun and entertaining, smart and moving, and poised to be a major player at next year's Oscars! DINNER PLAN: For dinner, we’ll switch it up this time and go with dinner at the Rusty Bucket BEFORE the show! Meet at 5:15pm and we’ll have a section reserved for the group! MOVIE PLAN: Immediately following dinner, it’s on to the show! We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater. When you purchase yours, be sure to mention you’re with the Movie Group for admission and concession discounts. Also, recommend parking in the lot near Brassica and your car will be close to the restaurant and the theater! Exact showtime and complete details will be confirmed and announced as the date gets closer. Can't wait, Dan

This dramatic-crime-thriller follows a career pickpocket who is forced into a desperate, high-stakes race against time through the streets of the city. It is written / directed by Noah Segan and stars John Turturro, Giancarlo Esposito, Steve Buscemi and Jamie Lee Curtis. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: An aging career pickpocket is forced into a desperate, high-stakes race against time through the streets of his city.

TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXA7BmrBBxs BUZZ & ACCLAIM A festival favorite, the film premiered at this year’s Sundance, Berlin, Telluride, Toronto and New York Film Festivals! It is earning a stellar 98% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, where critics say, “Turturo shines” in “one of the very best films” we’ll see all year! “It's gentle and tense all at once, beautifully written and directed, and features some of the most compelling performances I've seen in ages.” According to Next Best Picture, “Led by a terrifically tender performance by John Turturro, it’s a classy, enjoyable, lovely film about a man out of time, coming to terms with the fact that the world he occupies is no longer the world he knows.” PLAN: Details for this event have already been confirmed! A shorter movie and an earlier showing so should be quick in-and-out event to see a really great film! Please purchase your ticket for the 5:25pm showing and meet in the bar area between 5:00 and 5:15pm. A smaller theater so advance ticket purchase as soon as possible is advised! (But, if we sell it out quickly, we can sometimes give them a nudge to move it into a larger heater.) Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments below. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
