In a new film series, we'll be exploring movie genres: the musical, the western, and film noir.
Monday Movie of the Month is a new film series at the Bettendorf Public Library. We're launching this program with a six-month series that explores several tried-and-true film genres through pairings of classic and modern films.
Our first genre is the musical. This month, we'll be watching Damien Chazelle's 2016 La La Land, starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling, who play Mia and Sebastian, two young performers who fall in love while pursuing their acting and musical careers in Los Angeles.
Dates and films for the entire series are as follows:
January 13: Meet Me in St. Louis (1944)
February 10: La La Land (2016)
March 9: The Searchers (1956)
April 13: Unforgiven (1992)
May 11: Double Indemnity (1944)
June 8: Brick (2005)
The Bettendorf Public Library has served the community of Bettendorf since July 12, 1955. We offer Library events for all ages, and our meeting rooms are available for public use. See more information about our meeting room policy at http://www.bettendorflibrary.com/services/meeting-rooms/.
