A Decade of Academy Award Winners: 1946

"The Best Years of Our Lives"

Join us this winter on Sunday nights as watch and discuss each year`s Best Picture of arguably the most tumultuous decade in history.  As the world moves from war to peace to cold war, how do the year`s top films reflect this time period?  We`ll discuss this along with the actors, directors and other points of interest as we watch what the industry voted it`s best.

This seven Academy Award winning William Wyler pic based on a Time article on problems of soldiers when they come home.   An ensemble cast including Frederic March and Myrna Loy was the biggest box office draw since GWTW.  It`s still the sixth highest grossing film all time in the UK.

The location is the Unity Center of Spiritual Living in the University area.

Bring a drink, and a snack to share.  I got the popcorn.  (You may bring adult beverages.)
