On January 11, we had a Film Showing and Musical Performance: 7:30-9:30 PM at the Mountain View Studio, 20 Mountainview Ave., Woodstock. "The War of 33: Letters from Beirut” is an intimate, personal and powerful portrayal of the 2006 war in Lebanon. Ben Grosscup, a traveling folk singer/songwriter with biting lyrics and a powerful delivery, played before and after the 35-minute film.
It was a cold night, and only pulled in 25 people, but the movie was very well done, and Ben, backed up by Ellen, had us all singing along to his version of "Love Me, I'm a Liberal."
