Free Movie Night! Hits : 234
Friday, February 19, 2021, 07:00pm - 09:00pm
Location : A Netflix Teleparty link, see above.
Twice a month, Reason Center (RC) and AOF show you the love by treating you to a Free Movie under an excellent MPLC License (basically, a show-movies-for-free license). The license prohibits us from naming the movie here. Sometimes we can summgle a hint to you, sometimes not - and sometimes plans change. But if you contact Reason Center (see below), they'll tell you, then you can tell anyone.
Your hint: A Netflix original set in 1927 when fiery blues singer Ma Rainey joins her band at a music studio for a recording session. Released in 2020, aclaimed by critics, and full of great music.
Alas, the regular movie venue, Reason Center (RC), is still closed (the Coronavirus lockdown). So how can you attend? You'll need a personal Netflix account + a laptop or desktop 'puter with the Google Chrome web browser. If you don't have these we apologize -- please be patient until RC can open its doors. Else, here's how to join us:
- Open your Chrome web browser right now and install the Netflix Teleparty Extension. Get it at:
https://www.netflixparty.com/. (Really, do it now, don't wait till movie night!) - Just before show time, fire up the Chrome browser again and go to the very special Netflix Movie Telepary link, which is ... https://www.tele.pe/netflix/2f57e0b3b77a7509?s=s167.
- Click that link. The Movie Teleparty page will open. Log into Netflix (if not logged in already). At the top right of the browser frame check your "Extensions" list. Find the letters Tp in red. You may need to click on the letters.
- The Netflix movie party should begin. You'll be watching it along with the rest of us. As it plays we can chat on the side of the screen and make silly, snarkey comments.
Free Movie Night was made for Reason Center members, but non-members are welcome too. RC may beg a small (voluntary) donation to cover costs. How can you become a Reason Center member? Sign up at http://reasoncenter.com/donate/. Membership is a measly $5 a month and is tax deductible if you itemize. And the perks (like this one) just keep getting better.
Contact : See the RC Contact Page or email "programs (at) aofonline (dot) org".
Free Movie Nights generally occur two Friday evenings each month. You can suggest your own fave flick for next time, how cool is that?
