SUMMARY:THE CHORUS screening
DESCRIPTION:\n\nSometimes the people who change our lives are the ones who
 ’ve lost their way themselves.\n\nThat’s a message in “The Chorus\,
 ” a French film that’s enchanted audiences around the world with its b
 eauty\, honesty and soaring choral performances.\n\nJoin us at 7 p.m. Satu
 rday\, Oct. 18\, at Rondout Valley United Methodist Church\, 25 Schoonmake
 r Lane in Stone Ridge\, for this emotionally rich story of hope\, healing
  and the quiet power of compassion.\n\nClément Mathieu is a failed compos
 er taking a job he never wanted — supervising troubled boys at a harsh b
 oarding school in postwar France.\n\nThe headmaster rules through punishme
 nt. The boys have given up hope.\n\nBut Mathieu hears something no one els
 e does: potential.\n\nWhen he forms a choir with these “unreachable” s
 tudents\, their voices — and their lives — transform.\n\nCritics almos
 t universally praise this film\, which earned 12 critic and festival award
 s and was nominated for an Academy Award and Golden Globe for Best Foreign
  Language Film:\n\n“Enchantingly beautiful and moving.” — Claudia Pu
 ig\, USA Today\n“Infused with nostalgia\, optimism and authenticity.” 
 — Doris Toumarkine\, Film Journal International\n“Delivers its uplifti
 ng message with succinctness\, sincerity and skill.” — William Arnold\
 , Seattle Post-Intelligencer\n\nWant a preview? Watch the trailer: tinyurl

  celebration of artistic expression\, second chances and the lasting impac
 t of a teacher who chooses inspiration over punishment.\n\nAnd bring a fri
 end who could use a little music in their soul.\n\n\nFrench with English s
