Greater New Haven

For over 11 years, the Cinema Club (originally called the Key Sunday Cinema Club) has met in Greater New Haven. The very first screening was of TWO FAMILY HOUSE in October 2000 at the Madison Art Cinemas. The Madison Art’s Arnold Gorlick greets members at every show with Cohen’s bagels, local fresh-baked scones, croissants, muffins, cluster cookies, home-baked biscotti, Essse Italian coffees, Connecticut’s own Harney & Sons tea and, of course, his warm, welcoming smile. Today, we continue to meet for two seasons out of the year (winter/spring and fall) at the Madison Art Cinemas for stimulating sneak previews and discussions -- all moderated by Yale Professors John MacKay or Michael Kerbel. Join today to become part of Greater New Haven’s rich film history!
