Come to the Movies at the Library!

Library Film Series

The Library Spring 2008 Film Series will present, as its second featured film, the musical CHICAGO on Monday, February 25, at 6:00 p.m., in the Library Classroom, 2nd floor. This is the second film in the series.


Winner of six Academy Awards(R) (2003) including Best Picture, and starring RenĂ©e Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Queen Latifah, Richard Gere, and John C. Reilly – CHICAGO is a dazzling spectacle cheered by audiences and critics alike! At a time when crimes of passion result in celebrity headlines, nightclub sensation Velma Kelly (Zeta-Jones) and spotlight-seeking Roxie Hart (Zellweger) both find themselves sharing space on Chicago's famed Murderess Row! They also share Billy Flynn (Gere), the town's slickest lawyer with a talent for turning notorious defendants into local legends. But in Chicago, there's only room for one legend!

The film will be introduced by Dr. Deanne D’Emilio who will also moderate a post-viewing Q & A session.

Additional films in the series are:

Monday, March 31 – Sophie Scholl: The Final Days, moderated by Dr. Julie Smith
