Faith Formation Fireside Film Festival: Ordinary People

  • Arlington Community Church 52 Arlington Avenue Kensington, CA, 94707 United States (map)

On Wednesday, November 1 Faith Formation will present its monthly film offering, Ordinary People.

  “Ordinary People [1980] is a film that works on several levels. It is a sensitive portrait of a young man struggling to regain his equilibrium after caving in to grief and guilt following his brother's death. The story also works as an incisive portrait of a hurting family — one in which surface calm conceals a real lack of communication, self-esteem, and mutual understanding. Finally, the drama presents an edifying example of humanistic psychology at its best.”

Quoted from the website, Spirituality and Practice: Resources for Spiritual Journeys.

Please plan to arrive at or before 1:30 to allow cozying in to watch the two-hour film starting at 1:45. Of course there will be the traditional popcorn and lemon water to enjoy during the film and an after-film discussion of its content.

Later Event: November 2
