DVD of the Week
|
|
This week's DVD of the Week is 'My Love, Don't Cross That River.'
Byong-man Jo and Gye-yeul Kang have been together for 76 years when this documentary/movie captures their fragile and tender daily lives. With seemingly indominable spirits, they socialize, play, and live every day without being burdened by the prospect of the near future. This foreign film in Korean is subtly romantic and brazenly heartwarming.

It's the second day of Spring so don't waste a second finding a book to get through mud season.
Can't pick a book? Librarians like nothing more than to help you find a new author, series, or totally unexpected genre to spark your interest. Or just take a look at what the book discussion groups are reading!
The book discussion groups meet again this week on Thursday, March 23rd at two times: 12:30pm and 6pm. This month's book is 'Etta Otto Russell and James' by Emma Hooper, led by Abi Maxwell.
Happy Reading, and see you soon!
