saint bernard

Bay seniors who worship great architecture will have a number of opportunities this weekend to pay homage to the master himself, Bernard Maybeck, in a three day celebration sponsored by the Berkeley Architectural Heritage Foundation. Unfortunately the screening of a documentary on the great one is sold out. But there is a free guided tour […]

the silver screen

Bay seniors  watching with curiosity the movie stars of our youth –deNiro, Pacino, Redford, Julie Christie, Jane Fonda- return to the silver screen may be unsurprised to learn that there is an entire film program devoted to our still powerful demographic. The 2013 Legacy Film Festival runs the weekend of June 7-9 at the Coppola […]

opera-tunity

Bay seniors feeling deprived now that SFMOMA will be temporarily closed might want to use this opportunity to explore some of our non-mobbed museums. Do you even know where Museo Italo Americano is?

fogey films?

Frankly I could happily watch Dame Judi Dench trimming her fingernails. In her new film “The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel” she manages to rise above a platitude-rich script and her scenery chewing costars but what makes it of interest to geezers is that it deals with all kinds of touchy senior issues. Could this be a trend? […]

godforsaken

Bay seniors with their doubts about religion will no doubt find themselves sitting quite comfortably in the skeptical audience at the Roxie Theater in SF on Sunday Aug 21 for the Atheist Film Festival. Among promised presentations are the first atheist musical. Tickets start at $12 for a single film to $40 for a whole […]
