Bahai Movie Night continues with

My Name Is Bill W. is a 1989 CBS Hallmark Hall of Fame television movie directed by Daniel Petrie, starring James Woods, JoBeth Williams and James Garner. William G. Borchert, who wrote the film for television, based it on the true story of William Griffith Wilson and Dr. Robert Holbrook Smith, M.D. (the men respectively called "Bill W." and "Dr. Bob"), the co-founders of Alcoholics Anonymous. James Woods won an Emmy for his portrayal of Wilson.

Not exactly a comedy but an important point in history. The film depicts the founding of a program that accepts people of all faiths and walks of life. The virtue of compassion,caring, respect and service are practiced in this important program.

I credit Dan Morgulis with suggesting this film. If you have a movie that you want to see just let me know and I will see what I can do.

I will see everyone at 7:30pm on Friday May 23rd at 99 College Street snacks provided so just bring yourselves.and a friend.

Baha'i Movie Night, your request!

Tell me the movie that you want to see. The only criteria is that the characters in the movie practice Baha'i virtues.

Last Fridays movie was 50 first dates because you requested it. In the movie the main character played by Adam Sandler falls in love with someone who is unable to remember him from one day to the next, he learns the value of patience persistence and the value of a committed relationship.

7 of us enjoyed it immensely and I want you to enjoy and appreciate the the journey of the main characters in a movie. So tell me what you want to see for next Friday May 23rd.
