Book-to-Film Club


Every month, read a classic or contemporary novel, then meet to watch and discuss a film adaptation. Talk about casting, plot changes, symbolism, costume design, and whether the old adage that “the book was better” rings true. BYO popcorn.

  • Oct 13: This month we will be watching two film adaptations of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein; a 1910 silent film directed J. Searle Dawley, and a 1931 rendition directed by James Whale.
