Posted on 10/17/2011 by EtzAdmin

Our monthly Movie Mogul series begins this week with the showing of A Bigger Splash.

British painter, draughtsman, printmaker, photographer, and designer. After a brilliant prize-winning career as a student at the Royal College of Art, David Hockney had achieved international success by the time he was in his mid-20s, and has since consolidated his position as by far the best-known British artist of his generation. Tells the story of Hockney’s breakup with his lover Peter Schlesinger, this film made a big splash in 1974 when it was released, originally banned for a scene of homosexual intimacy.

All films are screened at 7:30 pm at the Synagogue and open to all. Call 954-564-9232 for more information.

Movie Mogul – A Love to Hide – 9/20

Posted on 09/19/2011 by EtzAdmin

“A LoveTo Hide” is the story of a young Jewish girl, Sarah, who is looking to escape the clutches of the Third Reich after seeing her parents and sister brutally slain by a smuggler who betrays them while attempting their way to England. Terrified, she is sheltered by her childhood friend Jean, a homosexual living a clandestine love affair with his lover, Philippe.

They are safe for the moment, thanks to Jean’s plan to pass her off as a Christian employee of his laundromat. However, a bad decision made by Jean’s troublesome brother, Jacques, causes Jean to be wrongly accused of being the lover of a German officer. Jean is then forced into a Nazi labor camp.

A Love To Hide is one of those rare films that depict homosexual deportation during World War II.

We will be screening the film Tuesday, September 20th, at 7:30 PM at the Synagogue. Admission is free for all.
