Points of Interest Serenity Assisted L i v i n g & M e m o r y C a r e Dilworth, MN Points of On February 14 each year, sweethearts celebrate Valentine’s Day Interest: by exchanging cards, chocolates, and other tokens of love. But do these sweethearts know who they are celebrating? The true identity of St. Valentine is murky and there are differing stories detailing his role in the • February church and the acts that inspired the popular holiday bearing his name. Birthdays Competing stories depict St. Valentinus (the Latin version of the name) as either a priest from Rome or the Bishop of Terni during the reign of Emperor Claudius II. Legend has it that Valentinus aided Christians who • Activity were persecuted under Claudius II’s reign. Eventually, Valentinus, too, was Calendar put under house arrest at the home of Judge Asterius. It so happened that Asterius had a blind daughter. The judge asked Valentinus to prove the power of Christ by restoring the girl’s sight. When Valentinus performed • Snapshot the miracle, the judge thanked him by freeing him and all the Christians he Photos had imprisoned. But Valentinus did not remain free for long. He was again arrested and brought before Emperor Claudius II himself. When Valentinus attempted to convert Claudius to Christianity, he was executed on • Movies of February 14, AD 270, but before his martyrdom, he is said to have written a the Month note to the daughter of Asterius, which he signed “From your Valentine.” Another story details how Claudius II outlawed marriage for young men in the belief that single men made better soldiers than those with wives and families. Valentine defied Claudius and performed marriages in secret, purportedly cutting hearts of parchment and gifting them to the couples as a sign of God’s eternal love. When Valentine’s secret was discovered, Claudius executed him. These stories are different yet they both illustrate Valentine’s devotion to his faith and his people. As these legends spread, so did Valentine’s reputation for heroic love and devotion, inspiring a holiday dedicated to the ide- als he died for. The following movies are scheduled once per week in each building. Please refer to the weekly activity calendar for dates and times of scheduled movies. Overcomer (2019) Max High school basketball coach John Harrison and his team face an uncertain future when their town's largest manufacturing plant shuts down unexpectedly.

Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (1968) While truant from school, young siblings Jeremy and Jemima meet the beautiful Truly Scrumptious (Sally Ann Howes), who falls for their widowed father, Caractacus Potts (Dick Van Dyke), and his various oddball inven- tions, including the family's noisy rebuilt car, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. One day at the beach, Caractacus tells Truly and the children a fanciful fable about the villain- ous Baron Bomburst (Gert Frobe) and his evil designs on the Potts family car. Chicken Little (2005) Young Chicken Little (Zach Braff) throws his small town into panic by claiming the sky is falling. Unable to find the piece of "sky" that hit him, he earns the town's scorn. A year later, outcast Little tries to redeem himself by joining the baseball team, helping to win a crucial game.

With songs like "Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry" and "Walk Like a Man," the quartet finds itself at the top of the charts. However, personal and professional problems threaten to tear the group apart.

  • Fast Facts and Fun Trivia
    Fast Facts and Fun Trivia ● The original book, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang: The Magical Car, published in 1964 with illustrations by John Burningham, was based on bedtime stories Ian Fleming told to his son, Caspar. ● The original Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was first published as three separate books. ● Ian Fleming met Count Louis Zborowski when he was a schoolboy. ● The name and look of the car were taken from a series of racing cars built by Count Louis Zborowski in the early 1920s. ● The book inspired a 1968 movie written by Roald Dahl and Ken Hughes, with songs by the Sherman brothers. It was directed by Ken Hughes and produced by Albert R. Broccoli, who was also a producer of the James Bond movies. It starred Dick Van Dyke as Caractacus Potts and Sally Ann Howes as Truly Scrumptious. ● The role of Truly Scrumptious was reportedly offered to Julie Andrews, who had starred alongside Dick Van Dyke in Mary Poppins, but Andrews, apparently feeling that the part was too close to the Poppins mold, declined. ● The movie’s title song was nominated for an Academy Award. ● Six versions of the car were built for the movie, and many replicas have been produced since. The car built for the stage production of the musical holds the record for the most expensive theater prop. ● One of the nondrivable Chitty Chitty Bang Bang cars went up for auction in 1973 in Florida and sold for $37,000. The prized drivable model sold for $805,000 in May 2011. ● Ian Fleming owned a Ford Thunderbird, which went very fast but didn’t quite fly.

  • A Note from FRANK COTTRELL BOYCE
    a note from FRANK COTTRELL BOYCE The very first film I saw in the cinema wasChitty Chitty Bang Bang. I still remember the moment when Chitty drove off the edge of the cliff and the whole theater rang with howls of fear and frustration as the image froze and the word intermission blazed across the screen. I sat through the next ten minutes just waiting for the film to start again. Even now, whenever I come across a really heart-stopping moment in a script or a story I always think of it as a “Chitty falls off the cliff” moment. Because I didn’t want the film to be over, I followed the car’s smoky trail to the library and found Ian Fleming’s book Chitty Chitty Bang Bang: The Magical Car, which he’d written for his son, Caspar, in 1964. I thought that if I read it, I would see the whole film again inside my head. I was taken aback to discover that the book was very different from the film. The mum isn’t dead. There’s a different villain. There’s a recipe for fudge! I suppose this must have been the moment I learned that films and books — even when they’re telling the same story — each have a differ- ent kind of enchantment. And that there might be more than one — or more than a hundred — ways to tell the same story. Which obviously brings us to the idea of a sequel. I have no idea what made the Flemings ask me to write the sequel.
