SUMMARY:The Film Group
DESCRIPTION:  \nLes Diaboliques (1955) Dir. by H-G. Clouzot. With Simone Signoret\, Vera Clouzot\, and Charles Vanel. This was a film Hitchcock wanted to make\, but the French got there first. The headmaster of a third-rate boarding-school is murdered by his wife and mistress – they drown him in the bath\, and dump the body in a filthy swimming-pool. But the body goes missing\, and all sorts of weird things happen after that\, committed by the Diabolical ones. The is perhaps the only film which beats Hitchcock for surprises and suspense. \n

SUMMARY:Literature Group
DESCRIPTION:Bring Your Own Poem ! \nFollowing the success of November’s Bring Your Own session on war poetry\, we are having another meeting to which people are encouraged to bring their own favorite poems (or short pieces of prose). I am proposing that the subject this time should be memories – so either a piece about memories or one that brings back a special memory for you. The format is that those who have brought poems etc. with them will read them and briefly explain their choice (perhaps stimulating some discussion). Of course\, if you don’t want to read\, someone else can read for you and if you don’t want to bring a poem you’re more than welcome to sit and listen.
