Hey Sylvia --

Thanks for the note re the new film.

We had thought that we'd show the Coexist Comedy Tour film here in the library, with a post-film discussion by the film makers, for a  Coexitance Festival month planned for Muskegon in September.

That's what we thought.  We bought the film.  Then we saw the film.  Four different staff people and their spouses/friends -- different ages and genders and religious perspectives and cultures -- viewed it separately, at home.  I'm the only one that made it to the end.   I even saw all the extra material.   It's just not a very good film on many levels -- the story telling being the main one.  It's not the extensive use of the F-word -- by the Buddist no less -- or the un-funny Jew -- it just wasn't very good.  Some sketches loosely strung together.  We were really disappointed.

I remember you saying you hadn't seen "Coexist" when I emailed you to get the film maker contact info.   So -- thought you'd want to know.  These might be great people, but having viewed their previous effort, I'll pass on this one.
