I finally did it! I invited my friends over for a viewing of an Oscar nominated film in the Foreign Language category!
I don’t get to watch the Academy Awards every year, but when I do, they sneak up on me and I end up kicking myself in the butt for not planning ahead and having no idea which movie should win best picture. But what’s frustrated me the most for YEARS is the fact that the foreign films sounded even better than the American films, and there was no way for me to watch them. Until now!
Netflix has all the nominated foreign films you could want! So I finally decided to take the bull by the horns and set up a glorious recurring movie night with my friends to watch those elusive foreign flicks.
We’ll start on Sunday, October 3rd, at 4PM, and get together every 3 or 4 Sundays. I made it early in the day so that everyone can get back home at a reasonable hour, and so that I don’t have to provide dinner, which would add cost to the event, which I’m sure nobody would appreciate.
And so, the OFFiS are born! OFFiS stands for Oscar Foreign Film Sundays 🙂
Our first film is Departures from Japan. Check out the trailer here
I’m so excited!!! My soul feels a little bit more fed.
