Citizen Kane, Gone With the Wind, Casablanca, Ninotchka, The Searchers, Vertigo.

The Classic Films Meetup is all about seeing great movies with other classic film fans. Our base of operations is the beautifully restored Stanford Theatre, in Palo Alto, with occasional forays to …
Our basic mission: To see significant and/or interesting films playing in the greater San Francisco Bay Area and then to go somewhere close by afterwards to eat, drink, share company and discuss the films we just watched. The philosophy of the BAFS is to allow a network of wonderful Assistant Organizers to thrive and coordinate film outings at least every other week. Our goal is that this horizontal arrangement can continue, and that potential member hosts will schedule outings in the South, Eas …
We are a newly-formed (Jan 2012) group of mature people on the Peninsula who love to see great movies and share thoughts about them. We welcome anyone who is over 55 and loves films to join with us.

If you're interested in meeting up occasionally to see a film, mostly independent and sometimes not, and also meet some cool people, then this is the meetup for you. We usually stick to theaters around Palo Alto, Mountain View, and Redwood City. We also meet for coffee or dinner, before or after depending on the movie time. Please check out our "About" page to learn more about the group. Hope to see you soon! Stefan

This group is dedicated to the original movie buff. The guy or girl who still sees the glamor in the movies. The person that still wants to go out and enjoy a movie on the big screen.

We will also be setting up projectors all over at great spaces in the city to show great new and classic films. So get on your …
We're aimed at building a community for free movie screenings weekly in the East Bay!
Meet others who deliberately seek out challenging foreign, avant-garde, and experimental films screened in San Francisco or Berkeley. After each film, we will get together for conversation at a cafe.

… Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbarella, Zardoz, and A Boy And His Dog? Does a one star Netflix rating intrigue you?

Meetings at my house will help me experiment with mixing cocktails, so just tell your less adventurous friends you'll be at a cocktail party.

… While psychology and psychiatry have remained mired in mechanistic conceptions of mental processing, rooted in classical physics, a renaissance in cell biology, advances in neuropsychology, consciousness studies and quantum physics now provide the cutting edge science - real science - to show and theorize about how holistic health therapies and integrative medicine work, and how our minds are “entangled” with the people we love! This series is based in the cutting-edge work of research biologi …
