Matinee Club Back With More Midday Movies In Chatham

CHATHAM, NJ — The Matinee Club is back for another season in Chatham, letting stay-at-home parents catch new movies while their children are at school.

It's run by two Summit moms, who were looking for a way to check out movies with friends during the school year while avoiding the costs of a babysitter. The club began in 2006, and now has 1,000 members.

Movie this season include "Battle of the Sexes," "Stronger," "The Mountain Between Us," with more to be announced. The club has previously shown "Hacksaw Ridge," "Moonlight," "La La Land," "Deadpool," and other adults-only films.
