Reel Adventures: The Shop Around the Corner Trivia Night

Do you like movies? Do you like exploring behind the scenes and learning the nuts and bolts of movie making? If so, please join us for Reel Adventures: The Shop Around the Corner! It’s like a book club, but MUCH better! Along with good fun, food and drink, prizes awarded, and more.

It works like this: We pick a movie that is either available free of charge, or at minimal cost, on one or more digital platforms. You watch this movie in the comfort of your own home, and then we meet at the museum for a discussion led by film expert and director Jeffrey Goodman, intermixed with trivia and games.

We will be providing complimentary water, soft drinks, a signature-themed mocktail, and light hors d’oeuvres. However, you are encouraged to bring whatever snacks strike your fancy.

The Shop Around the Corner (1940) is a romantic comedy directed by Ernst Lubitsch, centering on Alfred Kralik (James Stewart) and Klara Novak (Margaret Sullavan),two employees at a Budapest leather goods shop who despise each other in person. Unbeknownst to them, they are falling in love through anonymous, romantic letters as secret pen pals.

The Shop Around the Corner is available on YouTube TV, Amazon Prime, Google Play, and Apple TV for $3.99.

So, we look forward to seeing you!
