AARO Prague - Current Events

Dear AARO Prague Members,

We are pleased to announce two new movies scheduled for our events calendar.

On Thursday 17th September, we present a special screening of Czech classic Ecstasy, starring Hedy Lamarr - in its day an extremely controversial movie, billed as "The Most Whispered About Picture in the World".

An added bonus for the evening will be a short talk and Q&A with Mr. Norbert Auerbach, Vice-President of AARO Prague and former President of United Artists, whose father Josef Auerbach produced the movie in then Czechoslovakia in 1933.

There will be a pre-movie social in the bar from 7pm, with the main part of the evening commencing at 8pm.

Where:  Kino Atlas

Sokolovska 1, Prague 8

(see below for directions)

When:  Thursday 17th September from 7pm, movie starts 8pm.

RSVP: Via e-mail to this address, no later than Friday 4th September. We may open the event to Members' guests at a later stage if space allows.

Our second scheduled movie is to be a pre-release exclusive screening of the new movie from Oscar-winning director Martin Scorsese. Famous for perennial classics such as Taxi Driver, Raging Bull and Goodfellas to name but a few, Scorsese makes a new departure with upcoming release Shutter Island - a genre movie unlike any of his previous offerings. Further information will be provided closer to the time, but please save the date of Wednesday November 11th for what is sure to be a memorable movie night.
