Movies and Meaning was started in October, 2007 as way to bring people together from various spiritual, religious, and philosophical perspectives who have in common a love of meaningful movies. I personally started the group after I realized how often I was turning to contemporary movies in order to paint a picture of a spiritual theme in my weekly sermons. But, because I am just as comfortable in emerging spiritualities and other traditions as I am in the Christian tradition I didn't want it t …

Setup like a book club, we select one movie and meet to watch and then discuss the film. We prefer a variety of new and old films; which means we will meet at movie theaters, private homes and special locations for screenings. The group meets at predetermined location for a particular film. Come to one or come to them all. There is no requirement to attend all meetings. Movies and views are diverse. It is always a great time to meet new people and to simply get to 'see' Portland in its finest. T …

I have written three full length feature scripts for film, and I am an avid movie watcher for entertainment and the construction of plot and character devices that make a script compelling. My goal for this group is to have other screenwriters join so we can read and critique each other's scripts and also go to movies together so we can watch and critique the films. Dissecting and critiquing films and discussing structure will only help our own scripts better. Discussing the marketing of scripts …
