SUMMARY:Crushing On Movie Club Presents: Arrival (2016)
LOCATION:Stoep Startup Coworking Space
DESCRIPTION:Adapted By…: Arrival (2016)\nWhat happens when a film takes a
  short story and turns it into something bigger\, stranger and deeply cine
 matic?\nThis September\, Crushing On Movie Club is exploring the art of ad
 aptation with Adapted By…celebrating films that have transformed stories
  from books\, plays\, poems\, articles\, television and beyond into someth
 ing entirely their own.\nOur film of the month is Denis Villeneuve’s hau
 nting and beautiful Arrival (2016)\, adapted from Ted Chiang’s acclaimed
  short story Story of Your Life.\nWhen mysterious alien spacecraft appear 
 across the globe\, linguist Louise Banks is recruited to communicate with 
 the beings inside them. As she begins to unravel their language\, Louise d
 iscovers that understanding another way of communicating may mean fundamen
 tally changing the way we understand time\, memory\, and our own lives.\nB
 ut Arrival isn't simply a sci-fi film about aliens. It's a story about lan
 guage\, grief\, love\, choice and the limits of human understanding\, brou
 ght to the screen through Villeneuve's atmospheric direction\, Jóhann Jó
 hannsson's haunting score and Amy Adams' extraordinary central performance
 .\nFor our September meeting\, we'll be thinking about the film as an adap
 tation: What changes when a story moves from the page to the screen? What 
 does the film add\, remove or reimagine? And when an adaptation takes a st
 ory somewhere unexpected\, does it remain faithful to its source or does t
 hat even matter?\nCome along for an evening of film\, conversation\, snack
 s and a little bit of existential pondering. ??\nFilm: Arrival (2016)Adapt
