SUNDAY PIZZA AND MOVIE NIGHT: GRAN TORINO

Dear MCR members,

buonasera. This time the weekly reminder of our beloved and indeed necessary Sunday pizza and movie night comes a little bit earlier than usual. Our clever plan to escape the boredom and despair of a probably rainy sunday evening will follow the same well-tested formula also this time: come at 7 pm in the MCR to fill your stomach with a poor replica of the original dish my fellow countrymen once created, and then put on your most unwelcoming facial expression, Clint Eastwood style, to enjoy the screening of GRAN TORINO.

Disgruntled Korean War vet Walt Kowalski sets out to reform his neighbor, a young Hmong teenager, who tried to steal Kowalski's prized possession: his 1972 Gran Torino.

See you tomorrow!

Massi

Pizza tonight

For anyone who is not thrilled by the idea of hall at 5.30 today: we will be ordering Italian pizza from Principe tonight. Meet in the MCR at 6.15 to place your order!

Menu can be found here

PIZZA AND MOVIE NIGHT: THE IRON LADY

Dear MCR members,

the gift of an Internet connection seems to be a rare thing these days at Catz, so sorry for the late notice. Today is the first day of nought week, and what's better than a load of grease and cholesterol into your veins to give you the energy for the Trinity Term yet to begin? Come in the MCR at seven to grab some pizza slices and then stay for the movie, which will be THE IRON LADY.

An elderly Margaret Thatcher talks to the imagined presence of her recently deceased husband as she struggles to come to terms with his death while scenes from her past life, from girlhood to British prime minister, intervene.

See you later then!

BRING THE KING'S JUSTICE TO OUR MCR

Kings, Queens and Lords of the MCR,

It is an educational initiative proposed by our beloved High Septon of Alcohol Victoria, and I myself, rightful and self-proclaimed Warden of Gaming, Fantasy and Sci-Fi. The suggested time is 8.30-ish. Call your bannermen, summon your direwolves, unsheathe your swords, and brace yourselves: WINTER IS COMING.

PIZZA AND MOVIE NIGHT: THE GHOST WRITER

Amiable MCR members,

spring break or not, we'll keep the consuetude going on: come tonight at 7 in the MCR for some free pizza, and then stretch yourselves on the sofas while watching The Ghost Writer by Roman Polanski.

'A ghostwriter hired to complete the memoirs of a former British prime minister uncovers secrets that put his own life in jeopardy.'

See you tonight!

Pizza and movie night: The Dark Knight

Happy week 8 buddies! Spring break is very close now, and we all need some relax time. So...

See you tonight!

Handover dinner tonight!
