SUMMARY:The Great Films Project 10-12 (7 Samurai\, Singin' in the Rain\, Je
 anne Dielman)
LOCATION:Warehouse Bar & Pizzeria Chicago
DESCRIPTION:Saved in Palaner as: saved\n\nPalaner match: 30% · why: lots of
  people going\n\nQ: What is this “Great Films Project” thing?\nA: It’s an 
 opportunity for in-depth conversation about the greatest films ever made. 
 Each month\, we’ll be discussing and analyzing three acclaimed films. This
  August those films will be "The Seven Samurai"\, "Singin' In The Rain"\, 
 and "Jeanne Dielman").\n\nQ: How is this different than your regular month
 ly topic-driven Meetups?\nA: Think of it a little more like a book club. W
 e want to do deep dives into these films and may spend an hour or more dis
 secting each one (which is why we’re limiting to three). Because we want t
 o truly engage with these films\, we’re asking that all attendees come in 
 familiar with them and have strong opinions\, stimulating questions and en
 thusiasm to engage and discover.\n\nQ: Hold on! Who’s to say what the “gre
 atest films ever made” are? Isn’t that subjective?\nA: Of course\, and opi
 nions on why a film should or should not be considered such will be very u
 p for discussion. But there has long been and evolving “film canon” set ov
 er the years by critics\, film scholars and cinephiles. We are using the T
 op 1\,000 Greatest Films list from the “They Shoot Pictures\, Don't They?”
  website (https://theyshootpictures.com/)\n\nQ: So\, what’s so great about
  this list?\nA: It's not just one list. It’s an annual aggregation of "bes
 t-of" film lists from almost 11\,000 individual lists by critics\, filmmak
 ers\, publications\, and websites. TSPDT is critic-driven. It prioritizes 
 historical influence\, artistic innovation\, and critical consensus. That 
 doesn’t mean we will all agree with the rankings\, but we think it’s a goo
 d place to start.\n\nQ: What movies are coming up? What will this monthly 
 “project” look like over time?\nA: That’s an easy one. Just go to the TSPD
 T top 1\,000 list (https://theyshootpictures.com/gf1000all1000filmstable.p
 hp) and check out the first 36 titles. Those are the films we’ll cover ove
 r a year\, 3 per month\, in the descending order of the list\, starting wi
 th 1.
