Yet another entertainment company has stepped up to provide streamable content free of charge during the lockdown. Focus Features has just inaugurated a Movie Monday series for the month of April. Every Monday at 7 p.m. central, the indie studio will livestream over the company’s Facebook page (here) a different title from its archives. Some will even be accompanied by the filmmakers answering questions during the stream, and one will be a live “watch party.”
In addition, each stream will include a link allowing viewers to donate to the Entertainment Industry Foundations’ COVID-19 Response Fund (or you can just click here anytime).
Here’s the schedule of livestreams, with info about the extras:
April 6: Gosford Park (pictured); will also include the film’s Oscar-winning screenwriter, Julian Fellowes, answering questions.
April 13: Moonrise Kingdom; director-cowriter Wes Anderson will also answer questions during the stream.
April 20: Mallrats; writer-director Kevin Smith will host a watch party of this, his second feature film.
April 27: My Summer of Love.

I have a possible instant tea story for you. On You tube, Denton 20 year old “Sergio” is in an on-line competition to be You Tuber host Matthew Lush’s On-line boy friend. Here is the link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ootHq_0GZoA
This week, there is an dance in your underwear competition with Sergio and 9 other contestants.
The readers might want to vote for Sergio so he is not voted off the competition.
They also might enjoy see all these guys dance in the underwear.
If you want to interview Sergio, his instagram account is listed in the You Tube post (click see more).
I am “NOT” connected with You Tube, Sergio or Matthew Lush.
