AOF Activities & Events

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 discourages us from naming the movie. Sometimes we can hint, 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 turbulent 2021 teenage love/hate film about Sacramento, a coming-of-age memoir that got 5 Academy Award Nominations. "My love letter to Sacramento," said writer/director Greta Gerwig. No explosions, but lots of local landmarks, and some tear-pulling moments.

Alas, the regular movie venue, Reason Center (RC), is closed (temporarily, we hope!). So how can you attend? You'll need a personal Netflix account + a laptop or desktop computer 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:

1. 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!)
2. 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/ebdede63b036385a?s=s119.
3. 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. (If you can't find the Tp, look for the little puzzle-piece icon in the upper right, click, then you'll see it.)
4. 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) are like a love letter.
