Next Sunday (March 3) the Roxie (16th and Mission) is screening the rarely-seen pre-code classic "Shanghai Express"- directed by Joseph Von Sternberg and starring the incomparable Marlene Dietrich and Anna May Wong. Meetup fun could occur before, after, and during, depending on preferences.

Ebertfest 2013 is taking place from Tuesday, April 17 through Sunday, April 21. I know of at least one MeFite aside from myself who went last year, but other than that it was the kind of place where MeFites and MeFiteEsques abounded. Anybody else going? Anybody else from the area want to meet up?

Who's up for a drink followed by some Lovecraftian horror?
Whisperer in Darkness is coming to the
Seattle International Film Festival, with showings on June 3 at midnight and on June 5 at 9 - rather boringly I favour the 9 o'clock showing as I have to bve tucked up in bed by midnight but I am open to arguments.

Dig up your old home movies to bring and show, or just come and watch other peoples' films! This year Los Angeles has two venues for showcasing home movies: 8mm, 16mm, Super8 can be screened at the Echo Park Film Center, while VHS movies can be shown in Culver City at the Mayme Clayton Library.
Here is more info about the Los Angeles events.

...at
Bank of America Cinema, Chicago's most secret once-a-week motion picture venue. Currently run by myself,
goatdog, and some guy who hates the internet. This week's film is a British noir featuring weird psychodrama and
drunken jazz dancing, among other things. It is
unavailable on DVD. Also, our popcorn and candy are dirt cheap.
