Game Night * * *

       The biggest game in Game Night is for us, the audience.
       A group of people get together once a week or so for their Game Night - Trivia Pursuit, Charades, Monopoly etc.
We bring board games and popcorn.
We come in? Yes?
       One night, the elder brother of one of the players says he'd like to play too. Wouldn't an abduction  murder mystery be fun?  (You know those elaborate parlour games that people organise where they get actors to come into your house to play the part?)
        Except, predictably it goes wrong, but they don't know it's gone wrong, they think real bad people are actors and later they think actors are bad people... etc.
       And we don't know either which makes the whole thing rather fun as each twist comes.
       But the greatest fun Game Night has with us is Film Trivia. It just pours out! References shown and spoken about, from recent films to stuff from fifty years ago. No way I could keep up with them all.
       It bobs along and is a lot of fun, even if the concept gets a bit weary toward the end.
