A huge hit for audiences here and elsewhere in (sm)art house theaters when it first appeared at our cinema 5 years ago, Book Club now has a follow-up that’s been long and eagerly anticipated. The Next Chapter reunites Diane Keaton, Jane Fonda, Mary Steenburgen, and Candace Bergen as the four best friends take their book club to Italy for the fun “girls trip” they never had. When things go off the rails and secrets are revealed, their relaxing vacation turns into a once-in-a-lifetime cross-country (Italy, that is!) adventure.
