Temple Beth David of the South Shore to hold movie night featuring “Norman”

Temple Beth David presents Saturday Night at the Movies, featuring “Norman”

Temple Beth David has announced its first “Saturday Night at the Movies event for the season. On Saturday, December 14, beginning at 6:15 p.m. TBD will host a pizza dinner and a showing of the film Norman.

Starring Richard Gere, Lior Ashkenazi, Michael Sheen, Charlotte Gainsbourg, and Steve Buscemi, the film centers on Norman Oppenheimer, a well-dressed, well-spoken Manhattanite is a complicated man, and not necessarily a likable one. A self-styled “consultant,” Norman is whoever he needs to be at any particular moment, depending on the situation he’s trying to insinuate himself into or the person he’s trying to manipulate. Is he a shameless hustler? Or is he merely an overbearing yet well-intentioned mensch? While you may not be able to root for Norman, you can’t help but feel for him. The film evolves from funny to sad to suspenseful. Writer/director Joseph Cedar has created a rich character within a vivid sense of place.

Pizza will be served, $5 per person. Non-members are asked to pay in advance by sending a check to Temple Beth David, c/o Adult Education Committee, P.O. Box 479, Canton, MA 02021

RSVP by December 11 to [email protected]

Temple Beth David is located at 1060 Randolph St., Canton, MA
