Come join us to see the critically acclaimed dystopian sci-fi drama, Snowpiercer, the latest film from Bong Joon-ho (The Host, Mother). We will meet by 7:00pm at AMC Star Fitchburg 18, and after the film we might wander up the street to The Flying Hound Alehouse to discuss the film over libations.
The Madison Film Forum wants you to stream one great film every week, attend at least one great film every month, and meet people doing the same. We don’t sponsor these screenings, we just support them by showing up.

“This is exactly the sort of ambitious, audacious, and uncompromising filmmaking that deserves to be seen.”–Ian Buckwalter, NPR
“The best action film of 2014, and probably the best film, period.” —Andrew O’Hehir, Salon.com
