SUMMARY:Saturday Afternoon at the Movies - In person!
DESCRIPTION:Members & guests–$11.50 \nSaturday Afternoon at the Movies is going to … the movies! Join the group for the 12:10 PM showing of The Wedding Banquet (2025) at the Landmark Century Cinema. After the film\, the group will meet in the bar area of the theatre to discuss. No drink purchase required. \nThis week’s film is: The Wedding Banquet (2025) \n\nFrom Director Andrew Ahn comes a joyful comedy of errors about a chosen family navigating cultural identity\, queerness\, and family expectations. Frustrated with his commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris and running out of time\, Min makes a proposal: a green-card marriage with their friend Angela in exchange for her partner Lee’s expensive IVF. Elopement plans are upended\, however\, when Min’s grandmother surprises them with an extravagant Korean wedding banquet. Starring Bowen Yang\, Lily Gladstone\, Kelly Marie Tran\, Han Gi-chan\, Joan Chen\, and Youn Yuh-jung\, The Wedding Banquet is a poignant and heartfelt reminder that being part of a family means learning to both accept and forgive.
