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!

We are delighted to be hosting an all-ages Taiko perfomance on the library lawn this summer! Taiko is a full-body performance art that blends physicality and musicality, movement and rhythm. Originating in Japan but molded by a globalized world, taiko performances pay homage to ancient rhythms as well as innovate contemporary beats. Bring a blanket to sit on if you’d like.
Mountain River Taiko is a multi-generational community group sharing their love of Japanese drumming in western Massachusetts and beyond for over 10 years. MRT practices at the Bombyx Center for Arts & Equity in Florence, MA and offers performances and workshops. For more information, visit www.mountainrivertaiko.com
