Our first Film Club Members Only screening for the month of February is Clint Bentley’s Train Dreams, now nominated for Best Picture at The Academy Awards in 2026!
Based on Denis Johnson’s novella, Train Dreams follows Robert Grainier (Joel Edgerton in a classic Joel Edgerton role), a stoic laborer in the early-20th century American West who struggles with profound loss and rapid modernization of the Idaho wilderness, haunted by trauma and the changing landscape.
The film recently secured 4 Oscar nominations at the 98th Academy Awards (2026), including Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography (Adolpho Veloso), and Best Original Song (“Train Dreams” by Nick Cave and Bryce Dessner).
Thank you to Netflix for allowing us to play this film where it deserves to be seen: on the big screen.
