Fine Arts Movie Night

Rebecca Oliveira October 25, 2016

BY: REBECCA OLIVEIRA & FALYN KELLEY 

On October 21st, the Fine Arts club hosted the annual October movie night in Malden High School art teacher, Joseph Luongo’s room, H309, after school at 3pm.

The Fine Arts club was selling tickets during lunch block outside the cafeterias. After multiple different suggestions and votes, the Fine Arts club decided to show the movie Coraline due to majority of voting agreeing with the film. The film was chosen because it went well with the spirit of Halloween.

They sold two kinds of tickets: one of which cost $1 for the movie, but the other ticket cost $4 with the added bonus of food and drinks. There were different kinds of pizza–pepperoni, cheese, and chicken–along with kettle corn being served on white paper plates and the beverages included coke or sprite in plastic cups. Just right for staying in for movie night.

Coraline is based off of Neil Gaiman’s 2002 novel. It’s about this creative and adventurous little girl, whose family moves into a creepy new house with a secret door that leads to parallel world. This parallel world is the flip side of her world, where her parents pay attention to her and are happy as opposed to being cranky and oblivious workaholics who never have the time nor patience to deal with their daughter. However, she later discovers that the Other World has dark and sinister secrets, making it the perfect Halloween movie to watch.

The room was pitch black, save for the SmartBoard where the movie was being projected on. Innocently ominous music played as the credits rolled across the screen and these large metal, spindly hands undid a button-eyed doll, before rearranging her into Coraline.

There were about twenty people scattered throughout the room, sitting on stools with their attentions fixed on the Tim Burton movie.

The Fine Arts club tries to do a movie night in the months where there are important holidays, such as Halloween and Christmas. The next movie night will be in December, due to the craziness and business that fills up people’s schedules during pep rally and spirit week.

Any suggestions for Christmas movies will be taken and considered by the Fine Arts club.
