SUMMARY:Best Movies About Politics (Part I)
DESCRIPTION:NOTE: THE START TIME FOR THIS PRESE NTATION IS 6:00 PM TO ACCOMMODATE THOSE OF US WHO WILL BE WATCHING THE VICE-PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE AT 8:00 \nI am presenting a shortened version of this at several locations. This one is different because it will be in two parts and much more comprehensive. \nFilms will be presented chronologically. \nPolitics and the movies are a match made in heaven! Movies need compelling characters\, suspenseful plots\, unexpected twists\, and a great conclusion. Politics provides all the above and then some! In this remarkable new presentation\, Best Movies About Politics\, I’ll present my admittedly idiosyncratic list of the best films ever made about American politics. Some are dramas\, and some are comedies. Some are old classics\, and some are very modern. Some are well-known\, critically acclaimed Hollywood films\, and others are excellent but obscure! \nBest Movies About Politics\nThis fun\, fascinating\, and fast-moving presentation is one of my favorites\, combining my love of great cinema with a lifelong fascination with elections. And where else will you find a list that plausibly contains Henry Fonda\, Eddie Murphy\, Kirk Douglas\, George Clooney\, and Jimmy Stewart? From directors Frank Capra and Preston Sturges to Rob Reiner and screenwriters Aaron Sorkin to Rod Serling\, some of the most incredible talent in movie history have tackled the subject of elections in films that are entertaining\, thought-provoking\, and often unforgettable. We will look at clips from some of them and consider others! \nOf course\, we will leave time for discussion and your choices. Let’s see what everyone else chooses as the best movies about politics! \nCOST \nI ask for a voluntary donation of $5.00. If you cannot afford it or feel my programs are not worth $5.00\, email me\, and I will waive your fee. You only have to request the waiver once; it will automatically cover you for all future programs. I am struggling but supporting a family\, so I understand with compassion living on a tight budget! \nCash/Check Payable to Barry Bradford \nBarry Bradford \nP.O. Box #177 \nDeerfield\, IL 60015 \nPlease put Movies 1 on the subject line. \nPaypal: \nPayPal (Please note\, PayPal takes 10% of your donation as a fee. I receive $4.50) \n \n√ Venmo  \n(send to @B-Bradford-1) Please add a note saying ‘Movies 1.’ \n√  Zelle – Use the email address Barry1776@ATT.NET (Please add a note that it is for Movies 1) \n√ Don’t pay (or pay less) if you cannot afford it! Email me for a waiver if you are not able to pay. \nRegistration \nClick Here To Register \nNO ZOOM LINK??  \nIf you do not receive a confirmation email\, you did not sign up correctly. SAVE THE CONFIRMATION EMAIL! If you cannot find your confirmation email\, check your spam folder. The other alternative is to return to the website and sign up again. I cannot send you the link!
