September Pick: Sully

Sully


Our Movie Club's September outing will be to see Sully on Tuesday, September 13, at the Varsity Cinema (Manulife Centre, Bay & Bloor). Screen time is 12:15, so let's meet near the box office about 20 minutes earlier. If you don't see club members, just go in and watch the film and afterwards, if you wish to eat/snack with us downstairs at Scaccia, join us near the escalators or go down on your own.

SYNOPSIS:  On Jan. 15, 2009, Capt. Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger (Tom Hanks) tries to make an emergency landing in New York's Hudson River after US Airways Flight 1549 strikes a flock of geese. Miraculously, all of the 155 passengers and crew survive the harrowing ordeal, and Sullenberger becomes a national hero in the eyes of the public and the media. Despite the accolades, the famed pilot now faces an investigation that threatens to destroy his career and reputation. Directed by Clint Eastwood.
