The Biden administration recently
rolled out the second phase of a sweeping plan to reconfigure the

dimensions of that plan, focusing on what’s in it, why it’s so
controversial, and what its adoption might mean for our country’s
future. Presenter: Jesse Stiller is a
historian and writer, who specializes in American history, modern
European history, and international relations. Stiller received his
Ph.D. from the City University Graduate School, where he completed

MULHOLLAND DRIVE
July 26, 2021 
David Lynch,
United States,2001, 146 minutes, Color English
A love story in the city of dreams . . .
Blonde Betty Elms (Naomi Watts) has only just arrived in
Hollywood to become a movie star when she meets an enigmatic
brunette with amnesia (Laura Harring). Meanwhile, as the two
set off to solve the second woman’s identity, filmmaker Adam
Kesher (Justin Theroux) runs into ominous trouble while
casting his latest project. David Lynch’s seductive and scary
vision of Los Angeles’s dream factory is one of the true
masterpieces of the new millennium, a tale of love, jealousy,
and revenge like no other. |

THE SHOP ON MAIN STREET
August 2, 2021
Ján Kadár,
Czechoslovakia,1965, 125 minutes, B & W
Slovak/Yiddish/German/Latin (English Subtitles)
An inept Slovak peasant is torn between greed and guilt when
the Nazi-backed bosses of his town appoint him “Aryan
controller” of an old Jewish widow’s button shop. Humor and
tragedy fuse in this scathing exploration of one cowardly
man’s complicity in the horrors of a totalitarian regime.
Made near the height of Soviet oppression in
Czechoslovakia, The Shop on Main Street features
intense editing and camera work, which won it the Academy
Award™ for Best Foreign Film in 1965. |

| Free ‘Movies in the Parks' Series
Continues With ‘Remember the Titans’ on Friday, July 23, at Jesup
Blair Park in Silver Spring
Sorry for the late notice, LLI
just saw this event advertised and wanted to share.Jesup Blair Local Park is located
at 900 Jesup Blair Dr. It is just off Georgia Avenue near the
border of the District of Columbia. Free parking is available
at Jesup Blair Local Park and in the Montgomery College parking
garage across the street on Jesup Blair Drive.
Seating begins at 8 p.m. The movie will be shown on the sports
field behind the historic building. The movies will be shown on the
grass, so movie goers should bring blankets, towels or lawn chairs
to set up their own spots. Tents, hammocks and items that may
obstruct a movie-goer’s view are prohibited.
The first 50 attendees to stop by the Montgomery Parks table will
receive a free picnic blanket.
For the Friday night showings, Montgomery Parks is partnering with
the Maryland-National Capital Park Police, who will be on-site
throughout the evening to keep the event safe. Some officers will
be on horseback to show off their trusted animal companions and
will be bringing a police vehicle to offer tours to interested
residents.
More information about the movie series is available at https://www.montgomeryparks.org/event-team/movies-in-the-parks/. |
