SUMMARY:Monday at th Movies: O Brother\, Where Art Thou
DESCRIPTION:MEMBERS BRING A GUEST AND HAVE A CHANCE TO WIN A PIE!! \nFREE MOVIE AND POPCORN! \nLIMITED SPACE AT SALTMARSH\, RSVP\, CALL 508-325-4181  \nO Brother\, Where Art Thou? is a 2000 satirical comedy-drama musical film written\, produced\, co-edited\, and directed by Joel and Ethan Coen. It stars George Clooney\, John Turturro\, and Tim Blake Nelson\, with Chris Thomas King\, John Goodman\, Holly Hunter\, and Charles Durning in supporting roles. \nThe film is set in rural Mississippi in 1937\, and it follows three escaped convicts searching for hidden treasure while a sheriff relentlessly pursues them. Its story is a modern satire which\, while incorporating social features of the American South\, is loosely based on Homer‘s epic Greek poem The Odyssey.[11] Some examples of this include Sirens\, a Cyclops\, and the main character’s name\, “Ulysses”\, which is the Roman name for “Odysseus“.[12] The title of the film is a reference to the 1941 Preston Sturges film Sullivan’s Travels\, in which the protagonist is a director who wants to film O Brother\, Where Art Thou?\, a fictitious book about the Great Depression. \nWhen you RSVP\, please leave your full name\, phone number and if you are bringing a guest.
