Join us for the first Reading Club event where we will be discussing "The Catcher in the Rye" novel by J. D. Salinger.

Plot: The novel details two days in the life of 16-year-old Holden Caulfield after he has been expelled from prep school. Confused and disillusioned, Holden searches for truth and rails against the “phoniness” of the adult world. He ends up exhausted and emotionally unstable..

We will discuss the book and two main themes: protecting the innocent and isolation apart from any other topics which will come up.

Join us for another Film Club event where we will be discussing 1976 Martin Scorsese's movie "Taxi Driver" featuring Robert De Niro.

Plot: Travis Bickle is an ex-Marine and Vietnam War veteran living in New York City. As he suffers from insomnia, he spends his time working as a taxi driver at night, watching porn movies at seedy cinemas during the day, or thinking about how the world, New York in particular, has deteriorated into a cesspool. He's a loner who has strong opinions about what is right and wrong with mankind. For him, the one bright spot in humanity is Betsy, a worker on the presidential nomination campaign of Senator Charles Palantine. After an incident, he believes he has to do whatever he needs to make the world a better place.

We will not watch a movie there but will talk about it, share opinions and just enjoy each other's company. Let's discuss other Scorsese's movies as there is so much to talk about.

This event is free, everyone buys his own drink.
