DESCRIPTION:\nFilm evenings begin with optional potluck refreshments and social hour at 
  6:30 pm,\nfollowed by the film at  7:30 pm, followed by a discussion after 
 the film.\n\nThe Corporation\nby Mark Achbar\n\nPresented by Joy 
 Newhart\nfrom MoveOn\n\nThis award-winning documentary explores the nature 
 and spectacular rise of the dominant institution of our time, the 
 corporation. Footage from pop culture, advertising, TV news, and corporate 
 propaganda illuminates the corporation’s grip on our lives. In the 
 mid-1800s the corporation emerged as a legal “person.” Imbued with a 
 “personality” of pure self-interest, the next 100 years saw the 
 corporation’s rise to dominance. Taking its legal status as a 
 “person” to its logical conclusion, the film puts the corporation on 
 the psychiatrist’s couch to ask: “What kind of person is it?” 
 Concluding its point-by-point analysis into the corporate personality, a 
 disturbing diagnosis is delivered: the institutional embodiment of 
 laissez-faire capitalism fully meets the diagnostic criteria of a 
 “psychopath.” Provocative, witty, sweepingly informative, this searing 
 film includes forty interviews with corporate insiders and critics — 
 including Milton Friedman, Noam Chomsky, Naomi Klein, and Michael Moore — 
 plus true confessions, case studies and strategies for 
 change.\n\nWheelchair accessible around the corner at  411  28th  
 Street\n\n$5 donations are accepted\n\n\n\n
