[Michael L Ray]

LTATM discussions at the Del Mar Theater are indefinitely suspended. Please join us online via Zoom video conferencing software (details below) where this week we'll discuss a film streaming on Kanopy (anyone with a library card can join Kanopy for free and stream six to twelve movies a month). 

On Wednesday, December 10, at 7pm we will be discussing the Drama - Bless Their Little Hearts (1984). Unemployed, depressed and running out of options for supporting his wife and three children, Charlie Banks (Nate Hardman) is just barely eking out a living in the Los Angeles neighborhood of Watts in the early 1980s. His wife, Andais (Kaycee Moore), accuses him of irresponsibility, and even of cheating on her, an allegation that isn't true until Charlie decides it may as well be. Charlie's friends try their best to help him get by, but their well-intentioned plans don't always pan out. 100% on Rotten Tomatoes:
