Best of luck for this new club - As a huge classic film buff, I plan to check it out.
I once saw the family version of the Original Film, of the 1946 classic, It's a Wonderful Life.
Family version, because it belonged to Frank Capra and was being presented by Frank Capra, Jr who was kind enough to present it to our class at UNC, where he was the Director of Film Studies. It was one of those special times. He shared a lot of stories about various parts of that great movie, from his Dad's lens.
