SUMMARY:Cafe Conversations
DESCRIPTION:Café Conversations is a great way to practice\, improve and/or help you feel more comfortable speaking French with friendly francophones and francophiles who enjoy speaking French in an informal setting.  The group meets two Saturdays a month from 10:30 to 12:30 (be sure to check this calendar often). Have a cup of coffee and meet/greet fellow members for the first half hour or so with some small talk – en français (It’s all about practicing!) and then prepare to tackle the subject of the day. \nAn article in French (often with a side-by-side English translation) is read out loud en français by the participants to practice proper pronounciation and to check understanding of the French vocabulary and grammar. The article will then be used to spark the conversation. \nAll levels of French are welcome. AFNWCT members attend free and a $5 suggested donation is kindly requested from all others. \nThose with a question\, or if you wish to propose a certain topic or lead one of the discussions should contact Brigitte: cafe@afnwct.org \nThis group meets at the AF Center located at 1 Pomperaug Office Park\, Suite 301 in Southbury. See map below.

SUMMARY:Cinema Et Conversation
DESCRIPTION:For May\, we plan on showing Day of the Jackal (1973). The film will be in English\, but we will show French subtitles. Although the film is American\, it does a superb job in showing a fictional story based in a tense period in French history when Charles DeGaulle’s life was in real danger from ultranationalist extremists. This is a film version of a breakthrough mystery by Frederic Forsyth where we know the conclusion\, but we don’t know how the plot will take us there. The producers received rare permission to film behind the scenes at a Bastille Day celebration\, and to film inside the Ministry of the Interior for meeting scenes. Strother Purdy will introduce the film in English\, and Anne Quinson-Franklin will introduce the film in French. \nSnacks will be provided\, BYOB.
