Reminder FRIDAY MOVIE/ DINNER: Three Identical Strangers – Gateway, 7:20 pm – July 13

Posted in AIDS Museum, Movies, Wednesday Night HIV+ Support Group on July 12, 2018| Leave a Comment »

FRIDAY NIGHT MOVIE. JULY 13, 2018

THREE IDENTICAL STRANGERS

The Most Amazing, Incredible, Remarkable True Story Ever Told.

GATEWAY THEATRE

STARTS: 7:20 PM

DINNER AT 6:15 PM: TIPICO CAFE (Mexican) 1910 E. Sunrise Blvd (walking distance to Gateway Theatre)

New York, 1980: three complete strangers accidentally discover that they are identical triplets, separated at birth. The 19-year-olds’ joyous reunion catapults them to international fame, but it also unlocks an extraordinary and disturbing secret that goes beyond their own lives – and could transform our understanding of human nature forever.

CLICK HERE FOR PREVIEW

San Francisco Chronicle Review: 5 STARS

“Three Identical Strangers” tells a remarkable story. In fact, it tells several. It’s already extraordinary 20 minutes in, and then it goes to unexpected and yet more amazing places, like a narrative feature by a master storyteller.

But this is a documentary. Specifically, it’s about three young men in the New York area who made it into their college years without knowing that they were part of a set of triplets, adopted separately. The year was 1980, and the discovery was made when one of the triplets happened to transfer into a college where everybody seemed to recognize him. The subsequent reunion with what he assumed to be his twin resulted in press coverage … causing the third triplet to surface.

Already, this is interesting in all kinds of ways. The triplets were identical and had a lot of habits and preferences in common, similarities they played to the hilt in the midst of the media blizzard that followed. Indeed, they played up these similarities to themselves, seeming to glory in discovering their other two-thirds.

MOVIE REVIEW

.

By BRUCE DEMARA Entertainment Reporter

Thu., May 17, 2018

Personal faith, free will and forbidden love. Disobedience explores these themes in a beautifully crafted tale that will make your heart ache, thanks to two standout leading performances and a great supporting one.

The film opens with Rav Krushka, the beloved leader of an Orthodox Jewish congregation in London, delivering a sermon about the tricky place human beings occupy in the world, torn between the forces of spiritual good and darkness, but provided by HaShem (God) with free will — i.e., “the power to disobey.”

When Krushka dies, word reaches his long-estranged daughter, a New York photographer named Ronit (Rachel Weisz), who rushes home but not before engaging in some pretty self-destructive behaviour. Her return is greeted with muted shock. So utter has her exile been that she doesn’t know her two dearest childhood friends, Dovid (Alessandro Nivola) and Esti (Rachel McAdams), are now husband and wife.
