  2. Why are your movies always screened so late? Have you considered starting them at 7 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. instead of 8 p.m.? I would like to join you, but the time is an issue.

    1. Hi Linda - really glad you brought this up, as the time is too late for me, too :). you notice that the stated time is 7:30, yet the way polish home functions: people come after work, want to eat dinner first, they don't show up upstairs until ten to 8 pm or so (some would like us to start at 9 pm!)...

      i no longer can cope with staying till 11 or past for the discussion, so i'm very motivated about moving it down to 7 pm, but probably will have a new audience, if any... tonight is a long film 'chinatown' - planning to start at 7:30 sharp, wish me luck!

      my profile on the blog has a email contact, please email me, so i can contact you if i manage to move the screening down.

Polish Movies on Netflix and Amazon Prime

Since OKO meets only once a month, here is a list of movies in Polish, with English subtitles, available on Netflix and Amazon Prime. Documentaries are not included. If you are into that genre, there is a ton available! Enjoy!
