movie viewing event; film screening; movie night
Refers to an organized gathering for watching a movie, such as a club activity, a private screening, or a casual movie night.
We're holding a movie viewing event next Friday.
I watched an old Japanese film at the school's film screening.
上映会 is a more formal public screening, often for promotional or cultural purposes, while 映画鑑賞会 is typically a smaller, more casual gathering focused on appreciation.
Compound of 映画 (movie) + 鑑賞 (appreciation) + 会 (meeting, gathering).
