One Book, One Community Film: "Joy Luck Club"

Manchester
Friday, October 1, 2010, 6:30 – 9pm

Like "Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet," this 1993 feature film by Wayne Wang explores the Chinese-American immigration experience and the intergenerational conflicts that can arise among family members from different cultures.

Based on the best-selling novel by Amy Tan, the film beautifully reveals events and conditions that have shaped the lives of several generations of Chinese women. The extraordinary lives of four remarkable Chinese mothers and their American-born daughters are filled with love and tragedy, richness and magic.

Rated R for strong depiction of thematic material.

Silent No Longer: The Internment in Memoir and Poetry

Manchester
Saturday, October 2, 2010, 2 – 3:30pm

Mary Matsuda Gruenewald, author of the 2005 memoir, "Looking Like the Enemy," and Lawrence Matsuda, whose book of poetry, "A Cold Wind from Idaho," was recently published, read from their works and discuss their internment experiences, with photos.

Now eighty-five and a retired RN, Mary Matsuda Gruenewald began writing her story in her seventies, no longer willing to stay within what she describes as "the self-imposed barbed-wire fenced built around my experiences in the camps." A Young Reader's edition of "Looking Like the Enemy" is being published in October

A former teacher and school administrator and now an educational consultant, Larry Matsuda was born in the Minidoka, Idaho War Relocation Center during World War II. His poems appear in Poets Against the War website, "The Raven Chronicles," "New Orleans Review," "Floating Bridge Press," "Cerise Press," and the International Examiner Newspaper.

Silent No Longer: The Internment in Memoir and Poetry

Bainbridge Island
Sunday, October 10, 2010, 2 – 3:30pm

Mary Matsuda Gruenewald, author of the 2005 memoir, “Looking Like the Enemy,” and Lawrence Matsuda, whose book of poetry, “A Cold Wind from Idaho,” was recently published, will read from their works and discuss their Internment experiences, accompanied by a photo presentation.

Now eighty-five and a retired RN, Mary Matsuda Gruenewald began writing her story in her seventies, no longer willing to stay within what she describes as "the self-imposed barbed-wire fenced built around my experiences in the camps." A Young Reader's edition of “Looking Like the Enemy” is being published in October.

A former teacher and school administrator and now an educational consultant, Larry Matsuda was born in the Minidoka, Idaho War Relocation Center during World War II. His poems appear in Poets Against the War website, “The Raven Chronicles,” “New Orleans Review,” “Floating Bridge Press”, “Cerise Press,” and the “International Examiner” newspaper.

The selected One Book title for this year, Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet, by Jamie Ford, is a work of historical fiction set in Seattle during the 1940s. It explores the bitter enmity between the Chinese and Japanese during the first decades of the twentieth century.

One Book, One Community Film: "Snow Falling on Cedars"

Firehouse Theatre, Kingston
Tuesday, October 12, 2010, 7:30 – 9:45pm

Based on the prize-winning novel by Bainbridge Island author David Guterson and set in 1954, "Snow Falling on Cedars" (1999) revolves around the anti-Japanese sentiments still alive after the events in "Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet."

Carl, a fisherman in the waters off a small island town in Washington, has been found dead. A murder suspect is located in the local Japanese-American community in the form of Kabuo, another fisherman, who had a grudge against Carl's family. Ishmael, the small town's newspaperman, may have information that would acquit Kabuo, but can he ever put his jilted love for Hatsue (Kabuo's wife) aside?

Directed by Scott Hicks. Starring Ethan Hawke, James Cromwell, and Richard Jenkins. Rated PG-13.

The Thin Man
William Powell, Myrna Loy, Maureen O'Sullivan. Turner/MGM; Directed by W.S. Van Dyke
Black and White; Not Rated; 91 minutes; 1934
The chemistry between William Powell and Myrna Loy was so right that this film spawned five sequels. The pair plays Nick and Nora Charles; he is a veteran detective, she his sophisticated wife. The THIN MAN is a great combination of murder, mystery, and screwball comedy.

Free Movie Showing: Round Midnight

Bainbridge Island - Historic Lynwood Theatre
Sunday, October 17, 2010, 4:30 – 5:30pm

In 'Round Midnight, real-life jazz legend Dexter Gordon brilliantly portrays the fictional tenor sax player Dale Turner, a musician slowly losing the battle with alcoholism, estranged from his family, and hanging on by a thread in the 1950's New York jazz world. Dale gets an offer to play in Paris, where, like many other black American musicians at the time, he enjoys a respect for his humanity that is not based upon the color of his skin. A Parisian man who is obsessed with Turner's music befriends him and attempts to save Turner from himself. Although for Dale the damage is already done, his poignant relationship with the man and his young daughter re-kindles his spirit and his music as the end draws near.

One Book, One Community Film: "Round Midnight"

Historic Lynwood Theatre, Bainbridge Island
Sunday, October 17, 2010, 4:30 – 6:45pm

"Round Midnight" (1986) is Bertrand Tavernier’s glowing tribute to the golden age of be-bop, featuring jazz great Dexter Gordon as an expatriate Black American jazz saxophonist who becomes the very embodiment of the music itself and its era.

An Oscar winner for best musical score, it brings alive the jazz scenes in "Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet" with its stirring music and exciting performances by many of the sound’s best artists. Rated R, probably for language.

Island Theatre at the Library: "The Immigrant"

Manchester
Friday, October 22, 2010, 7 – 9pm

The Bainbridge Island-based theatre troupe, Island Theatre, performs "The Immigrant," by Mark Harelik. "The Immigrant" is the biographical story of the author's grandfather, a young Jew who fled the pogroms of Czarist Russia in 1909 and pushed his banana cart into the tiny Baptist community of Hamilton, Texas. Given shelter by a childless older couple, he sent for his wife, raised a family, and made this town his home. Sharing several of the themes of "Hotel on the Corner of Bitter and Sweet," it is a true story of parents and children, newcomers and natives, and what it means to be American.
