This year has featured lots of films that eschew the typical formula of a date movie.
Guest host Scott Pukos and his panel of movie lovers will explore this trend — is it just marketing or are audiences craving something beyond the standard rom-com?
Our guests:
- Sarah Antao, rom-com expert and teaching staff member at the Focus Theater
- Roemer Johansson, copywriter and member of the Little Theatre
- Roberto Lagares, multimedia reporter for CITY Magazine
- Adam Lubitow, projectionist and programmer at the Little Theatre and programming director for Anomaly: The Rochester Genre Film Festival
