Boston Free Films Dec. 2nd to Dec. 9th

[josephineave.livejournal.com]

 We have another busy week of free films and I snuck in a couple that you can get to on Sunday night.  Tufts Film Series is over for the semester (and classes wind up this week, with maybe a film break scheduled during finals).

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. 

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 am always looking for new sources of free cinema. 

Check for last minute changes or contact the organizers to make sure events are still happening, especially in case of inclement weather.

Calendar back online + 2 Brattle free showings

[josephineave.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure why it wasn't searchable, but I checked and the calendar is now available again through Google Calendar. Perhaps it was just a timeout for misbehavior.

Two Brattle screenings I didn't include in my highlights:

Mon., 12/3 9:45 pm The pilot of Twin Peaks (plus free pie & coffee)

Sat., 12/8 11:00 am Il Posto (Italian) (plus post-film discussion)

Both screenings will be at Brattle Sq. Theater in Harvard Square.
