POLITICAL BOOK CLUB

PBC – The book for March 27th is Twilight of Democracy: The Seductive Lure of Authoritarianism by Anne Applebaum (June 2021, 224 pages) The Pulitzer Prize winning historian explains, with electrifying clarity, why elites in democracies around the world are turning toward nationalism and authoritarianism. Applebaum contends that political systems with radically simple beliefs are inherently appealing, especially when they benefit the loyal to the exclusion of everyone else.

The only requirement to join the book club discussion is that each participant has read the book. The standard format consists of each person giving a brief (1-2 minute) statement concerning the book’s overall impressions and implications. This segment is followed by group questions and discussions of the material.

Argentina 1985
Netflix: https://democratsoftheredrocks.us4.list-manage.com/track/click?u=99420b3382ec4c035549b8b92&id=48bdfd713f&e=6167d90b49

Greetings film fans and happy 2023! DORR’s political film group is back after the winter holidays. Awards season is upon us once again, and we’re proposing Argentina 1985, the Golden Globe winner for Best Picture-non English film, as our next selection.

Inspired by the true story of the legal fight to prosecute Argentina’s military dictatorship in the 1980s, the film centers on the Trial of the Juntas, in which a civilian court tried former military leaders for brutal crimes committed while the country was under a right-wing dictatorship. The trial is the only example to date of a large-scale effort by a Latin American democratic government against its country’s former dictatorial government. Natalia Winkelman wrote in The New York Times, “Like a pair of old wingtips polished with wax, Argentina, 1985 spins a notable piece of history into an impassioned courtroom drama flecked with quaint humor.” Argentina 1985 is available on Amazon Prime. Join us to talk about what The Guardian called a “forthright, muscular and potent movie.”

We’ll send an invite to our zoom conversation a few days before February 10.

Let’s meet Friday February 10th from 5-6pm on Zoom. We look forward to a rich conversation about immigration, equity, economics, dreams, and wherever else the films lead us.

DORR’s political film club is hosted by Mik Jordahl (Attorney) and Frankie Riemer (Professor). To sign up, send an email to [email protected] and ask for the Zoom invitation. If you signed up for any of our previous films, your name is already on our list for the invite.

The film ran away with awards this year. In addition to Best Motion Picture, Everything Everywhere was also awarded Best Original Screenplay, Best Achievement in Directing, and Best Achievement in Film Editing. In addition, Michelle Yeoh was awarded Best Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role, Jamie Lee Curtis for Best Performance by an Actress in a Supporting Role, and Ke Huy Quan for Best Performance by an Actor in a Supporting Role. The film, about multi-universes, the stresses and frustrations of post-modern life, and cosmic chaos, is “an exhuberant swirl of genre anarchy.” As A. O Scott writes in The New York Times, the movie is a “metaphysical multiverse galaxy-brain head trip, but deep down — and also right on the surface — it’s a bittersweet domestic drama, a marital comedy, a story of immigrant striving and a hurt-filled ballad of mother-daughter love” https://www.nytimes.com/2022/03/24/movies/everything-everywhere-all-at-once-review.html.

Join us to talk politics, the multi-universes, timelines and possibilities. We’ll send a calendar invite to our zoom conversation a few days before our discussion on March 10. DORR’s political film club is hosted by DORR member Mik Jordahl (Attorney) and Board member Frankie Riemer (Professor).

To sign up, send an email to [email protected] and ask for the Zoom invitation. If you signed up for any of our previous films, your name is already on our list for the invite.
