CUSACK IS BACK! IN A CRIMINALLY UNDERRATED 90S GEM!
6:30pm, film at 7:30pm – $20
Dear Pointes High alumni, can you believe it’s been 10 years since you left Grosse Pointe?
.
Join us at Race Brook Lodge for a once-in-a-decade party built around a screening of the criminally under-seen GROSSE POINTE BLANK, complete with radio-ready live music, spiked punch, name tags, dancing, and food on toothpicks!
.
And if you haven’t seen this film (or even if you have!) you’re in for a treat. One of the best screenplays of the ‘90s, this dark comedy follows Martin Blank (John Cusack) who manages to charm us as a prickly hitman that returns to his hometown to address some unfinished business and to unpack some lingering emotional baggage. He falls back in with a beguiling Debi (Minnie Driver), who he stood up on prom night – and we’re treated with unforgettable appearances by Dan Aykroyd, Jeremy Piven, Alan Arkin, and Joan Cusack — as well as one of our absolute faves at Boondocks HQ, Carlos Jacott!
.
If you’re familiar with Boondocks, or if you attended our last event at Race Brook Lodge, you know we’re going to pull out all the stops!
.
So go see some old friends. Have some punch. Visit with what’s-her-name.

Race Brook Lodge is a hidden gem in The Berkshires, at the foot of Mt. Race and a short hike from the Appalachian trail. The yoga & event barn at Race Brook is simultaneously rustic and sublime, steeped in hundreds of years of New England history. The Stagecoach Tavern is unpretentious fine dining, exquisite farm-to-table cuisine in a relaxed atmosphere. Much of the food is sourced from Race Farm, right on the property!
