We'll be starting the movie at the end of the United Artists logo introduction.



This is at 0:00:14 on the R-4 DVD.

Set up your movie here, and pause. We'll all be hitting "Start" at exactly the top of the hour.

We'll be taking three short breaks during the film. (Usually around 10 minutes)



The first break is at the start of chapter 7 on the R-4 DVD. This is at 0:24:16.
This is right after the jailhouse scene where the inmates can hear the gallows being prepared for the morning.




The second break is at the start of chapter 16 on the R-4 DVD. This is at 0:48:30.
This is right after the scene where Miller says to Cooper, "You'll never get me to Fort Grant alive,boy."
To which Cooper replies, "Then I'll get you there dead, boy."




The final break is at the start of Chapter 26 on the R-4 DVD. This is at 1:18:50.
This is the scene right after Cooper is getting dressed and can hear the crowd singing Rock Of Ages before the hangings.



I hope to see as many members here as possible.

(I'm starting this thread early so I could add the event to the calendar--all events must have a thread to link to.)

Just a couple of reminders:

1) By default, this board gives you a warning message when someone else has posted while you're writing a post. That can get very frustrating in the heat of things in these threads ... but now the feature can be turned off, temporarily (or permanently if you prefer).

To turn it off, click the link on the brown bar near the top of the page to your profile:

You'll go to your profile page. On the left-hand side, there's a list of stuff you can do here including "Modify profile." Under that heading, click the link to "Look and Layout Preferences." Now you'll see some choices with little white checkboxes next to them. One of them is "Don't warn on new replies made while posting." Click in that box so there's a check mark there. Then, in the lower right hand corner, click "Change profile" and you're all set.

I find it also helps to use the keyboard shortcut when posting: alt+s. (Or in the latest version of Firefox, alt+shift+s.)

2) You can also use the "Quick Reply" feature: At the bottom of each thread is a brown bar with "Quick Reply" on the left hand corner. If you don't have it enabled, that's all you'll see and there will be a plus sign to the left of "Quick Reply." Click the plus sign, and a reply box will open beneath the brown bar and will stay there until you click the sign (now a minus) next to "Quick Reply" again. You can type your post right in this box and don't have to wait for a "Reply" page to open. It's a little harder to use smilies, though, unless you remember all the shortcuts!

When I was looking at the times for this Sunday, the world clock website did say that it takes Daylight Saving Times into consideration.

I notice a lot of countries finish their DST this Sunday, so I hope those times are correct. If you live in an area where DST is finishing this weekend it may be an idea to double check these times.

I remember a couple of years ago we ran into the same trouble one movie night when it fell on the weekend that DST either started or finished in some countries.

As for Brasil is correct. We had a change in the time zone Sunday. It happens every year in order to save electric energy.

I won't be in this movie night but I see you all in the next one

The time in the UK will be changing at 2.00am 0n 25th October  
see link.   http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/customs/questions/clocks.htm

So we will be back to GMT for the movie night.    8.00 PM Clashes with the one TV program I watch on a Sunday so I will have to set the video recorder.  There is no way I am going to miss a moive night.

Looking forward to it.

Another helpful tool when watching movie night is go into your profile, then click "Look and Layout Preferences" and check the box next to where it says "Return to topics after posting by default".

That way you don't get sent back to the "Home" page every time you post.

Unfortunately, I'm going to miss the beginning. I'll try to be back by the first break ... I hope a lot of you will be here for the whole thing!

[Alcatraz]

I might miss this one. Things have come up but hopefully I can pop in at some point.

[The Schofield Kid]

Just over ten minutes to showtime.

Hello Higgy and SK.   Hope KC can join us later and Alcatraz.   So what has happened to everyone else??

[Southern cat]

Hi guys and gals.

[The Schofield Kid]

Hey Lin.

I haven't heard from D'Amb for a few days. Doesn't look like he's going to make it. It's a shame, being we're watching a western.

[Lin Sunderland]

Hi SC.   The little group is growing. 

[higashimori]

  Maybe everyone think that it begins one hour later...?

[The Schofield Kid]

G'Day SC.
