The Florence Community Library’s February movie discussion will look at portrayals of the US Space Program on film. Come to the library Saturday, February 2 at 1:00 pm for a brief presentation, followed by a FREE showing of a recent, fact-based drama.

 

There have been many motion pictures centered on the US space program. During the 1950s, the drive to reach outer space was a frequent theme in science fiction and horror films. Later, serious dramas – many of them fact-based – attempted to realistically portray America’s journey into space – sometimes to great acclaim, and other times without success.

 

Join us as we look at some significant films that have tackles America’s journey into space, followed by a free showing of an acclaimed recent drama, based on a true story! Popcorn and water will be available free while supplies last. You are welcome to bring snacks and soft drinks to the show.
