SUMMARY:Architecture Group
DESCRIPTION:Architecture belongs to us all \nDavid Brazendale’s excellent publication launched last week\, “The changing face of A City” features the drawings of James Brierley prior to a period of momentous change. Following the extraordinary growth of the town in the Georgian era\, the Victorians swept away public buildings\, houses and streets to replace them with many of those structures we are most proud of today. As we see new buildings rise\, old structures find new lives and familiar landmarks disappear we should realise that we are once again going through a transformation. The built environment is where we live\, work and play. It’s where we drive our cars; ride our bikes and walk our dogs – or use our bus passes! So what legacy will we leave to those that follow us? \nThe Athenaeum Architectural Group is being reformed to address that question. We intend to explore all aspects of architecture\, from the functional design of our infrastructure to the fabric and fantasy of our urban furniture. Everybody’s got an opinion\, whether it’s a “caricatured carbuncle” or a “vista of virtual veracity” – one man’s pile of bricks is another man’s noble edifice. So\, bring your opinions\, your pride and your passion and join the exploration of our regions past\, present and future. \nIn our kick-off meeting at 1730 on 22 March we’ll examine the radical difference between form and function that exists between architects on land and at sea. Cammell Laird have probably created more buildings in our region than anyone else. And we’ll feature just one example of a currently operating vessel that predates the Royal Liver buildings. To assist us we’ll have John Pope\, a qualified naval architect/marine engineer with Braemar Group and we’d be delighted to have some land-based architects to keep us honest. \nOur following meeting on the 19th of April will feature an old friend\, the mercurial Ken Pye\, who will take us on a virtual pub crawl around the splendour of some of our Victorian watering holes. Put it in your diary now. This is not something you can get on Catch-up!

SUMMARY:The Film Group
DESCRIPTION:“True Grit” –  starring John Wayne and directed by Henry Hathaway. A young girl (Kim Darby) hires an aging US Marshal \, Reuben “Rooster” Cogburn  (John Wayne) to bring in the murderer of her father\, Tom Chaney (Jeff Corey)\, because she has heard that Cogburn has “true grit”. Assisted by a young Texas Ranger\, Le Boeuf\, (Glen Campbell)\, who is also seeking Chaney\, the three set out on the trail together. Wayne was awarded Best Actor for his portrayal of Cogburn\, despite his misgivings\, because the part was outside his comfort zone. This was the only Oscar Wayne was awarded for a performance.”

SUMMARY:Arts Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:The next meeting of the Arts Group will take place on Tuesday 6 March at 2:00pm\, with a talk by Michelle Rowley. \n  \nMichelle is a lecturer on the Fine Art programme at Wirral Met College where her teaching and arts practice involves printmaking and artist’s book production. Through these related practice areas\, she has worked on regional and international collaborative projects with other universities. \n  \nIn 2009 she initiated a long-term collaboration between Brigham Young University\, Utah and Wirral Met\, on projects involving ideas about our relationship to ‘place’\, why we value certain environments above others\, and how artists might interpret these themes. \n  \nHer talk will reveal a line of enquiry\, demonstrating her current investigation into nature and commerce in the city. Linking business parks and urban commons with an artist’s eye on the debates surrounding city planning and how the public’s improvised everyday use of our cities ‘places’ makes them their own. \n

SUMMARY:The Film Group
DESCRIPTION:14th February\, 2018 Inherit the Wind\,  \nThe film is based on the “Monkey Trial” in the South in the 1920s\, where a young teacher  was prosecuted for teaching the theory of evolution. Frederick March plays the prosecutor and Spencer Tracey defends the young man. It is an absorbing and intelligent movie on a topic which is still relevant in the USA at least. The surprise in the film is Gene Kelly\, who plays a hard-bitten reporter\, very unlike his usual roles. If you haven’t seen it\, the film is highly recommended.

SUMMARY:History Group Meeting
DESCRIPTION:Z Cars 1839 – Fact and Fictionalisation in the early years of the Liverpool Constabulary Force \n(Dr Nick Foggo\, Department of History\, University of Liverpool) \n“In the late 1830s policing in Liverpool was transformed to an extent not experienced again until the Z cars era in the 1960s.In the talk we look at the pioneering of concepts such as statistics\,cost-benefit analysis and linking crime with social deprivation.Sources drawn upon include newspapers\,memoirs of an early police constable and the first novel about Liverpool life.From this mix emerges  the extraordinary tale of a fallible human who tried to make a career in the new police.” \n

SUMMARY:The Film Group
DESCRIPTION:MEET  JOHN  DOE (USA 1941).   \nDir. by Frank Capra. \nGary Cooper\, Barbara Stanwyck \nEveryone knows Frank Capra’s It’s a Wonderful Life\, but what about  his forgotten earlier film with a very similar theme?  The hero is just an ordinary guy whom the press and the politicians take up\, and then betray.  He faces death on Christmas Eve in a howling blizzard.  But Capra’s film is full of his warm humour and philosophy of life.
