2:15 PM. – A Poem by Jared Barkan: Jared Barkan, our poet in residence, is back with a new poem entitled “Everybody Loves a Genius”.  It compares literary genius to the physical attractiveness of a pretty girl; and points out that such universally acknowledged gifts present to the possessor a serious challenge to their salvation. You’ll see how he explains it.  And, as usual, it is not without his characteristic sense of humor.”

 

2:30 PM – Presentation of New programs

 

3:00 PM – Italian Movie with English Subtitle. “Quo vado?” – Comedy, (2016) 1 h 26 min.

This movie was a homegrown box office smash in Italy; to like it, maybe you need to be a fan of its writer and leading man: Italian TV comedy star Checco Zalone – a performer somewhere between Sacha Baron Cohen and Michael Barrymore. Checco plays a guy who has a “posto fisso” or “fixed-job”: a much-coveted and outrageously cushy government post with zero work required. A new official, tasked with ending such sinecures, tries to persuade Checco to take voluntary redundancy. When he refuses, she sends him to ever more unpleasant postings, including an Italian expedition to the Arctic, where he falls in love with Valeria (Eleonora Giovanardi), a beautiful scientist of liberal views. She introduces him to the hilarious world of politically correct righteousness in her adopted homeland of Norway, where he sees how awful it is in silly old Italy. There are some very broad gags, some only tangentially claiming the status of satire. As for the title, Jesus’s reply to the question Quo Vadis? (Where are you going?) inspired Paul to return to Rome and Checco returns to Italy, too.
