Movie Club

Film Fanatics Classic Movie Club:

In September 2019, I launched a movie club via Meetup. The focus was on discussing the top 100 movies of all time. The list was determined by aggregating more than 100 best-of lists along with movie ratings, box office results, and awards. See the resulting list here. If you're interested in joining the Kansas City-based Meetup group, you can check out the Film Fanatics Classic Movie Club.
