(2026) DTSTART:20260905T210000Z DTEND:20260905T230000Z DTSTAMP:20260813T000921Z UID:event_315690169@meetup.com CATEGORIES:film DESCRIPTION:Portland Movie Club\n**Portland Movie Club’s New “Is It Ar t or Is It Trash?” Film Discussion Meet-Up: "THE BRIDE!" (2026)**\n\n**P lease note the date for this event has been changed to Sept. 5th.**\n\n*At a Portland Movie Club Meet-Up\, just like a book club\, we watch the movi e before we meet.*\n\n**Let's talk about movies!** Join Movie Club Member and Host David J for what will be the first ever PMC Meet-Up of our newest discussion group “Is It Art or Is It Trash?” Celebrating divisive fil ms over the decades. We start with the most recent film PMC has ever featu red for one of our Meet-Up discussions\, writer/director Maggie Gyllenhaal ’s “The Bride!”\n\nThis re-imagined and confrontational take on “T he Bride of Frankenstein\,” conceived of and directed by Maggie Gyllenha al (whom you may know from her impressive run of performances in “Secret ary\,” “Donnie Darko\,” “Adaptation\,” “The Dark Knight” and others) mashes up genres and styles with quintessential wild abandon. Her gung-ho cast includes Jessie Buckley\, Christian Bale\, Annette Benning\, Penelope Cruz and of course her brother Jake. Not to mention her husband\ , Peter Sarsgaard.\n\n**Here's how the Portland Movie Club Meet-Ups work:* *\n\n1. Just like a book club\, *we watch the movie before we meet*. You d on't have to watch it to join us\, but it'll likely be more fun if you do. \n2. We won’t discourage you from taking notes to help you remember your most inspired observations. But this is a social event where everyone get s to speak their mind and have fun\, and not a college lecture *(“zzzzzz ….”)*.\n3. We’ll meet at [Breakside Brewery in Beaverton](https://ww w.google.com/maps/place/Breakside+Brewery+-+Beaverton\,+12675+SW+1st+St\,+ Beaverton\,+OR+97005/@45.4867416\,-122.8068851\,17z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x5495 0f7496994b93:0x8f25da29dfaae2b8!8m2!3d45.4867416!4d-122.8068851!16s%2Fg%2F 11sw4l63nx?g_ep=Eg1tbF8yMDI1MDYyNV8wIOC7DCoASAJQAg%3D%3D) at 2pm on the sc heduled date. We typically have signs or relevant books or memorabilia at our table(s)\, and sometimes we even wear colorful antennae if the movie w e are celebrating demands it (e.g. “Real Genius” or “Robot Monster ”).\n4. We'll begin by going around and introducing ourselves. Then we ’ll provide a quick summary of the film's development\, suggest potentia l topics\, and dive into the group discussion.\n5. To add a new twist to o ur gatherings\, for this Meet-Up group only\, we’ll take a vote on wheth er you think the movie should be considered Art or Trash when we start. An d then again at the end we’ll take another to see if any minds are chang ed!\n\n**A little more about “THE BRIDE!”**\nJessie Buckley gets to ch annel at least 3 distinct personalities\, and no matter how over-the-top s he goes\, her range of crazy arguably matches the movie’s schizophrenia. Perhaps Christian Bale should be given an award just for finally smiling\ , laughing\, and charming his way through a role. But it could be argued t hat\, as Dr. Frankenstein’s misunderstood creation\, he does get to flas h his trademark grimace at least once. And sister Maggie gives her normall y intense brother the chance to dance ala Fred Astaire and only occasional ly scowl. The performances are boundary busting\, allowing each performer to play outside their safe zones.\n\nGyllenhaal taunts her audience by mas hing up a monster movie with a romantic comedy\, a tragedy\, a gangster op us\, a lavish musical\, takes a swing into “Natural Born Killers” terr itory\, passionately confirms the “Me Too” movement\, and drops it all in a 1980’s punk-informed version of the 1930’s. For some it proved t oo much\, and too unstable a mixture to find engaging. For others it felt like the second coming of that much-missed mad auteur\, Ken Russell\, at h is most insane and entertaining. The adventurous maker of movies like “L isztomania\,” “Tommy\,” “The Devils\,” and especially “Gothic. " "The Bride!" just might be what would have happened had they been stirre d together into one giant crazed epic.\n\n***Join us at this Meet-Up to de bate whether "The Bride!" is Art or Trash!***\n\n**Viewing Options:**\nAs it’s a recent Warner Bros. movie\, you can easily find it on HBO. It sho uld also still be available to rent at just about every streaming platform out there. For physical media enthusiasts\, there’s an absolutely spark ling 4K UHD Blu-ray in addition to a standard Blu-Ray in HD.\n\n**Trigger Notes:**\n“The Bride!” is on the wilder R-rated side of what we watch for our Meet-Up events. We direct you to the “Does the Dog Die” websit e for specifics on what in this movie may offend. [The Bride! (Movie\, 202 6) - DoesTheDogDie.com](Movie\,%202026)\n\n**Are you on Discord?

Responsible for films like 2001: A Space Odessey\, Full Metal Jacket\, and The Shinin g\; he influenced directors like Martin Scorsese\, Steven Spielberg\, Wood y Allen\, George Lucas\, and Paul Thomas Anderson. The next film we're loo king at is Dr. Strangelove (1964). Here's how it works:\n\n1. We'll meet a t Lucky Lab in SE at 6:30pm ([map](https://maps.app.goo.gl/74mfMgaTezMmPe7 D6))\, we'll have a sign at our table (be sure to check outside just in ca se the weather is nice).\n2. Grab a drink and we'll spend some time discus sing the film with us (NOTE: Just like a book club\, we watch the movie be fore we meet\, streaming links below).\n\n**Movie Spotlight: Dr. Strangelo ve or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb**\nDr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb is a 1964 black come dy directed by Stanley Kubrick\, based in part on Peter George's novel Red Alert. Set during the Cold War\, the film follows a chain of events trigg ered when a rogue American general orders a nuclear attack on the Soviet U nion\, bringing the world to the brink of catastrophe. As political leader s\, military officials\, and the eccentric former Nazi scientist Dr. Stran gelove attempt to avert disaster\, the film satirizes nuclear deterrence\, military bureaucracy\, and the irrationality of political power. Notable for Peter Sellers' multiple performances and its sharp blend of comedy and suspense\, the film is widely regarded as one of the greatest satires eve r made.\n\nThe film received widespread critical acclaim and has since bec ome a landmark of American and British cinema. Dr. Strangelove was nominat ed for four Academy Awards\, including Best Picture\, Best Director for St anley Kubrick\, Best Actor for Peter Sellers\, and Best Adapted Screenplay \, but did not win in any category. At the British Academy Film Awards it won Best Film\, Best British Film\, and Best British Art Direction (Black and White). The film was later selected for preservation in the United Sta tes National Film Registry and is frequently ranked among the greatest fil ms ever made. Its biting political satire\, innovative storytelling\, and enduring relevance have ensured its lasting influence on filmmakers and au diences around the world\n\n**About Stanley Kubrick**\nStanley Kubrick (19 28–1999) was an American filmmaker and photographer\, widely regarded as one of the greatest directors of all time. Born and raised in New York Ci ty\, Kubrick displayed a keen interest in literature\, photography\, and f ilm from a young age. After graduating from high school\, he taught himsel f all aspects of film production and direction. His films spanned various genres and were often adaptations of novels or short stories. Kubrick’s meticulous attention to detail\, innovative cinematography\, extensive set design\, and dark humor set him apart. Notable works include “Paths of Glory” (1957)\, an anti-war film\, and the historical epic “Spartacus ” (1960)\, both collaborations with actor Kirk Douglas. In 1961\, Kubric k left the U.S.\, settling in England\, where he continued to create groun dbreaking films. His science fiction masterpiece “2001: A Space Odyssey ” (1968) earned him an Academy Award for Best Visual Effects and is cons idered one of the greatest films ever made.\n\nKubrick’s artistic contro l extended to writing\, editing\, color grading\, promotion\, and exhibiti on. His perfectionism led to painstaking research\, innovative staging\, a nd multiple retakes of scenes\, sometimes frustrating his actors. His lega cy endures through films that broke new ground\, leaving an indelible mark on cinema.\n\nTips:\n\n1. Haven't seen the movie in a while? You're in fo r a treat - try to watch the movie sometime before we meet ([streaming opt ions](https://www.justwatch.com/us/movie/dr-strangelove-or-how-i-learned-t o-stop-worrying-and-love-the-bomb)).

The fil m follows Frank Chambers\, a restless drifter who takes a job at a roadsid e diner and quickly becomes involved with Cora\, the beautiful and unhappy wife of the owner. Their attraction soon turns into a dangerous plot to m urder Cora’s husband\, setting off a chain of events involving suspicion \, betrayal\, guilt\, and the consequences of trying to get away with murd er.\n\n**Here’s how The Portland Movie Club meet-ups work:**\nJust like a book club\, we watch the movie on our own time before we meet.\nWe'll me et at Lucky Lab on SE Hawthorne at 4pm on the scheduled date.\nWe'll typic ally have a sign at our table(s)\, but at least we'll try to be obvious an d identifiable.\nGrab some food and drinks to support our generous hosts a nd spend some time socializing and discussing this movie with us.\n\n**A F ew Notes about the film:**\n*The Postman Always Rings Twice* was directed by Tay Garnett and released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 1946\, based on Jame s M. Cain’s 1934 novel. The film is one of the classic examples of Holly wood film noir\, built around Cain’s familiar themes of lust\, greed\, c rime\, and fatalism. Lana Turner’s performance as Cora Smith was a major departure from her glamorous star image\, while John Garfield brings a re stless\, cynical energy to Frank Chambers. The chemistry between the two d rives much of the film\, but what makes the story especially noir is the s ense that their choices have already set them on a doomed path. The film w as controversial for its time because of its sexual themes and its frank t reatment of murder\, but it was also a major commercial success. With its roadside diner setting\, morally compromised characters\, tense plotting\, and increasingly oppressive atmosphere\, it’s a particularly good examp le of how Hollywood transformed hard-boiled crime fiction into classic noi r.\n\n**Viewing Options for the film:**\nAs of the date of this posting\, the film is available to stream for free with ads on Tubi and Plex\, and t hrough HBO Max/Amazon Channel\, and YouTube TV. It is also available to re nt or buy through Amazon Video\, Apple TV\, Google Play\, YouTube\, and Fa ndango At Home.\nFor physical viewing\, Movie Madness has two copies avail able\, as well as MultCo. library having two copies. If anyone knows of an y additional streaming or viewing options\, please comment on the event.\n \n**About the Film Noir group:**\nThis meetup explores classic and neo-noi r films\, focusing on shadowy visuals\, morally gray characters\, doomed r omances\, and crime stories where nobody’s hands are clean. We’ll watc h a mix of essential noirs and modern films inspired by the genre\, paying attention to themes like fate\, corruption\, obsession\, and alienation. These films often deal with violence\, crime\, and heavy subject matter\, so content can be intense at times\; checking a site like [www.doesthedogd ie.com](http://www.doesthedogdie.com/) is encouraged if you prefer content warnings.\n\n**Tips:**\nOnce again\, we do not watch the movie at the mee t-up. All members watch the movie on their own time before we meet to disc uss it. You don't have to watch the movie to join us\, but it'll be more f un if you do.\nSome people like to take notes or find books and articles r elated to the film and its subject matter\; feel free to bring those thing s along if there's something you'd like to share with the group.\nAt the e nd of the discussion\, we'll pass around a ballot where we can vote on a s late of options for the next discussion.\n\n**Films previously discussed i n the Film Noir group:**\n*Gun Crazy\, Dial M for Murder\, Sudden Fear\, T he Maltese Falcon\, Kiss Me Deadly\,* *Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?\,* and *Stranger on the Third Floor.*\n\n**The Portland Movie Club is on Disc ord!**\nAre you on Discord?

I apologize for the inconvenience!\n\nJoin Portland Movie Club members Kyle C. for th e next First Roles group discussion! This group focuses on the initial on- screen appearances of celebrated Hollywood icons. For this meeting we will discuss 1974's vigilante action-thriller **"Death Wish"** that not only f eatures a career defining performance from lead actor Charles Bronson\, bu t also features the debut big-screen performance from **Jeff Goldbum** who is billed as "Freak #1"\n\nHere's how it works:\n\n1. Watch the movie on your own (or with friends!) [Steeaming options](https://www.justwatch.com/ us/movie/death-wish) include Amazon Prime and AppleTV.\n2. We'll meet at L ucky Lab at 4pm ([map](https://maps.app.goo.gl/AYo3bnkvPPdngH6A8)) There w ill be a Portland Movie Club sign at our table.\n3. Grab some food and dri nks and we'll spend some time discussing this masterpiece.\n\n**Movie Spot light: "Death Wish"**\n\nIn 1970s New York City\, architect Paul Kersey (B ronson) returns home from vacation to a city struggling with rising crime. His sense of safety is shattered when his family becomes the target of a violent home invasion\, an event that leaves him grieving and unmoored. As he confronts the limits of the justice system and the emotional fallout o f the attack\, Paul is drawn into a moral crossroads that forces him to re consider what justice means in a city where danger feels ever‑present. T he film follows his transformation as he navigates grief\, fear\, and the growing tension between lawful order and personal retribution\, all agains t the backdrop of a gritty\, uneasy New York.\n\nEarly in the film\, Paul ’s family encounters a trio of young street thugs—one of whom is playe d by **Jeff Goldblum in his first big‑screen speaking role**. His appear ance is brief but memorable\, marking the moment Goldblum first appears in a theatrical feature with dialogue.\n\nIn the decades since\, **Death Wis h** has remained one of the most debated crime films of its era\, both for its gritty portrait of 1970s New York and for the cultural conversations it sparked around fear\, justice\, and vigilantism. Its influence can be f elt in the many films that echoed its themes\, and it continues to be revi sited as a touchstone of urban‑crime cinema.
