It’s like a book club…but with MOVIES!
Presenting, our newest discussion club! Every other month, starting on July 23rd, we’ll be meeting to discuss and delight in a masterpiece of cinema. Our first selection will be Sunset Boulevard (1950, dir. Billy Wilder). Widely celebrated as one of the greatest films ever made, Sunset Boulevard is a dark-comedy thriller about a young man drawn into the fantastical world of an aging silent film star. From the acclaimed writer/director of Some Like it Hot and The Apartment, this film is a treat to behold and full of Hollywood legends like Cecil B DeMille and Buster Keaton.
There will be DVD copies at the library, plus the movie is available on the streaming service Kanopy. No matter how you watch, come prepared to discuss at our meeting!

September’s selection is: The Wicker Man (1973, dir. Robin Hardy)
After receiving an anonymous tip, Sergeant Howie travels to a remote Scottish Island in search of a missing girl. Despite residents insisting that she never even existed, Howie doesn’t back down and soon finds himself lost in a unfamiliar world.
An enduring folk-horror masterpiece, the 1973 Wicker Man is often considered among the greatest works of English cinema. Come for the legendary Christopher Lee, and stay for the hypnotic, terrific thrills.
