Roger,

We also have a group of friends from church that watch movies on a monthly
basis. We have had some great conversation and good times together. We
rotate the location for viewing the responsibility for choosing the video.
For the most part, I've been enthusiastic about the choices. Below is the
list of movies we've shared.

Ruth

As Good As it Gets
Fire
no movie night
Shall We Dance
Defend Your Life
What's eating Gilbert Grape?
Full Monte
Big Eden
Blade Runner
Like Water for Chocolate
Whale Rider
Quiet American
Last Temptation of Christ
Nowhere in Africa
Barbarian Invasion
Pieces of April
Catch Me if You Can
You Can Count on Me
