Good evening,
 
If anyone would like apple mint--mentha rotundifolia such as that used at Perennial Pleasures in their tea sandwiches, I have a very, very large supply of the herb and also plants to share.  
 
I would appreciate a recommendation for someone:
  • Who repairs stone foundations.
  • To advise re a few ailing trees.
 
Thank you.
 
Best,
Cecile Betit

For Immediate Release
Note:  Photo from film attached
 
"Parasite" Marks the Return of Movies to Heald Auditorium, Saturday, September 5
 
FOLA's first film since the Covid-19 pandemic started will feature the award-winning South Korean film, "Parasite". It will be screened in the Heald Auditorium at Ludlow Town Hall on saturday, September 5 at 7 PM.
 
"Parasite" is a 2019 South Korean black comedy thriller film directed by Bong Joon-ho, who also co-wrote the screenplay with Han Jin-won. It follows the members of a poor family who scheme to become employed by a wealthy family by infiltrating their household and posing as unrelated, highly qualified individuals.
 
Parasite premiered at the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, where it became the first South Korean film to win the Palme d'Or. The film is considered by many critics to be the best film of 2019 and one of the best of the 2010s. It is also the 42nd highest rated film of all time on Metacritic. It grossed over $264 million worldwide on a production budget of about $11 million, becoming the highest-grossing South Korean film.
 
The Kims – mother and father Chung-sook and Ki-taek, and their young adult offspring, son Ki-woo and daughter Ki-jung – are a poor family living in a shabby and cramped half basement apartment in a busy lower working class commercial district of Seoul. Without even knowing it, they, especially Mr. and Mrs. Kim, literally smell of poverty. Through a series of scams and lies, they gain employment in the The Parks household.
 
The Parks are a wealthy family who for four years have lived in their modernistic house designed by and the former residence of famed architect Namgoong. While Mr. and Mrs. Park are all about status, Mrs. Park has a flighty, simpleminded mentality and temperament, which Min tells Ki-woo to feel comfortable in lying to her about his education to get the job. The new servants get rid of the hired help except for one, Moon-gwang, the Parks' housekeeper who literally came with the house – who knows all the little nooks and crannies of it better than the Parks themselves.
 
The question then becomes how far the Kims can take this scam in their quest to become their version of the Parks. The on-going efforts become a struggle within the household.
 
The movie is free and open to everyone; donations are appreciated. Due to Covid-19 restrictions, masks and social distancing are required. FOLA will supply water. For information, call 802-228-3238.
