The Easthampton Council on Aging Book Club meets at the Council on Aging every other month on the third Thursday, from 2 – 3:30pm. We provide copies of each title for participants to check out. Read the book and drop-in at the ECOA for the discussion. Visit the ECOA Book Club page for a list of dates and titles, with links to each in the catalog.
It’s like a book club…but with MOVIES!
Presenting, our newest discussion club! Every other month we’ll be meeting to discuss and delight in a masterpiece of cinema.
September’s selection is: The Wicker Man (1973, dir. Robin Hardy)
After receiving an anonymous tip, Sergeant Howie travels to a remote Scottish Island in search of a missing girl. Despite residents insisting that she never even existed, Howie doesn’t back down and soon finds himself lost in a unfamiliar world.
An enduring folk-horror masterpiece, the 1973 Wicker Man is often considered among the greatest works of English cinema. Come for the legendary Christopher Lee, and stay for the hypnotic, terrific thrills.
There will be DVD copies at the library, plus the movie is available on the streaming service Kanopy with your library card. No matter how you watch, come prepared to discuss at our meeting!
