Posting this a little early because of the special screening on Sunday morning at the Brattle (including pastries from Z Square).  

To access the full calendar, open up   Joe's BFF - Boston Free Films    in your Google Calendar.  As of right now, there is no easy way to link the calendar outside of Google.  Use the button at the bottom of this post to subscribe. 

Here are the films for the next week from Medford-Somerville-Cambridge-Boston.  Please let me know of changes, additions and new sources of films.  I expect the following week to be pretty dead from a film standpoint. 

This week's free film tip:  You see the big Red Box DVD dispensing machines in Shaws, Stop & Shop and some McDonalds.  There is a special site set up to track the codes you can use to get a free movie.  You can find it at  http://www.redboxcodes.com/redbox/redbox-codes   Each code can usually be used once per credit card.
