Brad'n Edward prove they can actually act! (Sep 17th 1999)

We may be a bit slow these days. After catching the early showing of Fight Club last night (about a month late), we're promising to aim for the premieres from now on...

Now we're just waiting for some movie where Edward Norton portraits Robert De Niro's son.

OK, so we haven't been hyper-active lately! (Sep 6th 1999)

After an excellent Norwegian summer with dry conditions on the cinema-front, the Society is warming up for an active autumn season.

The season was started with "The Matrix", a movie that proved to be quote good in spite of Keanu Reeves' usual "acting". The follow-up was "Star Wars - Episode I" - 'nuff said.

We have also had a private screening of "Chasing Amy" and "Enemy of the State" recently.

Next event

A micro-gathering is planned between Christmas and New Years. eXistenZ and Gattaca have been suggested for entertainment.

Nothing big really planned until the next millenium.

Maybe it's time to change name to "Eastwood 2000"?

Guestlist!

Eastwood Society sponsor request

It is common knowledge that the Eastwood Society can boast of having a higher number of highly skilled computer professionals than any other movie organization named after an American actor with 6 (or was it only 5?) bullets in his gun. Our membership list contains expert 3rd line technical support guys, low and hi-level programmers as well as managers, graphic artists, designers, con artists and visionaries.

Most of our members get several job offers each year, often over dinner paid by the would-be-employer. This is not a very rational way of recruiting new computer wizards, since the number of dinners might consume large amounts of time and money. So, why not sponsor an Eastwood Society Event ? By offering a reasonable amount of beer and tickets, your company can have the attention of a number of brilliant minds for several pints. We can't guarantee that your company will find someone to fill your underpaid position, but ask yourself - "Do I feel lucky?".
