You love to read and watch movies. Why not bring your passion for both together in a Masterpiece Book & Film Club? Get together with friends, talk about the books, films, costumes, characters and more! A Masterpiece Book & Film Club combines the appeal of a book club with the opportunity to be a film critic. It gathers people together to discuss works of literature and the ways filmmakers have interpreted them. A Masterpiece Book & Film Club is also a great way to get to know people in a new town or to meet like-minded people. Best of all, it's fun!
