Film buffs will meet to watch “Monsieur Hire.” Patrice Leconte’s “Monsieur Hire” is a tragedy about loneliness and erotomania, told about two solitary people who have nothing else in common. It involves a murder, and the opening shot is of a corpse. Monsieur Hire is a scrawny, balding middle-aged tailor who lives by himself. Alice is a beautiful, tender-hearted 22-year-old blonde who lives alone across the courtyard from Hire in the same apartment building. Monsieur Hire is considered a suspect simply because the neighbors think him strange. In June we’ll return to our regular 4th Monday, with 1 p.m. as our new regular start time.
