Films at Fowler continues in spring 2022 with Reckless Romance! 

For 26 years Concord film viewers gathered on winter evenings at Fowler Library to see some of the most interesting and stimulating examples of current and classic cinema from around the world. That movie series, now called Films at Fowler, changed to an online format in 2021 and continues in that format in 2022. Because we don’t meet in person, we will now view—on your own time schedule—selected movies on Kanopy, a free streaming service available to Library patrons. We will then gather on Zoom on scheduled evenings for a lively movie discussion. The theme of the movies in spring 2022 is a continuation of the winter theme of Reckless Romance. All five movies in this spring series have romance—not always conventional—at their heart. 

The Purple Rose of Cairo (1992)
A lonely Depression-era waitress and housewife (Mia Farrow) escapes to the movies, where she is surprised and thrilled when a handsome actor (Jeff Daniels) suddenly steps off the screen and into her life. 

Please watch The The Purple Rose of Cairo on Kanopy before the discussion.

This discussion is sponsored by the Friends of the Concord Free Public Library.
