Come to the Florence Community Library Saturday, August 13 at 1:00 pm, as the library’s August movie discussion focuses on the Cold War and how it has been portrayed on film. The presentation will be followed by the showing of a recent Oscar winning, fact-based thriller!
The Cold War between the democratic West and the Communist-led East started almost as soon as World War II ended, and continued until the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Lasting for decades, it became a fact of life for generations – and a touchstone for books and movies as well. The Cold War has been the centerpiece of films ranging from historical dramas to spy thrillers to action extravaganzas.
Join us for a discussion of the Cold War and the movies made about it, followed by a recent, Oscar-winning hit film. Popcorn and water will be available free to all who attend. Patrons are also welcome to bring their own food or soft drink to the show.
