Out-of-the-Ordinary Movies

Whether your taste in movies is either all-inclusive (you'll watch almost anything on Turner Classic Movies and you visit Loew's several times a month) or much more exclusive (you only like what the Bethel Cinema shows), have we got news for you! The library is now offering two film series on Sunday afternoons at 2:00 p.m. Now entering its fourth season, the Independent Film Series features award-winning independent films on the first Sunday of the month at 2:00 pm. Facilitated starting this season by Andrea Wright Barrett and once again sponsored by the FRIENDS of the Danbury Library, the movies showcase the best of indie filmmakers from around the world. A new series, European Classics: From Silents to the New Wave, on the second Sunday of the month and facilitated by Library Director Mark Hasskarl, takes a look at great European movies from the 1920's to the 1950's. Both series are free and include an introduction, refreshments, and a stimulating discussion following the film. So if you truly love movies, come sit in the dark with us for some out-of-the-ordinary films.
