How often have your said to yourself “I liked the movie so much more than the book” or are you more likely to think “The book was so much better than the movie?” Well, now you can talk about it and hear what others think at The Loft Cinema Book Club! We will host a moderated discussion following the film.
Based on Kurt Vonnegut’s classic absurdist novel Slaughterhouse-Five or The Children’s Crusade, this celebrated film version follows the adventures of Billy Pilgrim, a young man who becomes unstuck in time after being abducted by aliens from the planet Tralfamadore, leading to a moving examination of Billy’s (and Vonnegut’s own) shattering experience as an American prisoner of war. Directed by Oscar-winning filmmaker George Roy Hill (Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, The Sting). (Dir. by George Roy Hill, 1972, USA, 104 mins., Rated R ) Digital
