Friday Film Night for Adults
February 21st at 6pm
Community Room, 3rd floor
Join us once a month for a curated film selection!
This month’s screening: Rebel Without A Cause (1955, 111 minutes, dir. Nicholas Ray)
James Dean stars in a movie that shocked the United States with a performance that still electrifies the screen twenty-five years after his untimely death prior to the film’s release. In this archetypal drama of teenage angst and rebellion, three high school students who should lead idyllic lives in their stable, comfortable suburban families explode with a violence and sexuality that their parents cannot understand. This film–which ripped the façade from the post-war American dream to expose the rage of the country’s youth–resonates with an energy that has made it a modern classic and a powerful coming-of-age story.
This is an after-hours program for adults.
Bring your own food and drink (no alcohol) and/or enjoy some of our provided refreshments and snacks.
The library doors lock at 7 PM so we are required to stay on the third floor after closing time. If you need to leave early, approach Joe and he will escort you downstairs to the exit.
See you at the movies!
