See the Movie

I got approval from the powers that be to show the movie The Maltese Falcon at the Main Library this summer. Showtime is set for Thursday, June 28th at 7pm. I'll give out tickets at the June 2 Reader Roundtable meeting. You can also get tickets at the Main Library's Information Desk after June 1. This is a free event and open to all.

So mark your calendars! You don't want to miss seeing this great movie on a big screen. The American Film Institute ranked it #26 on their list of the top 100 thrilling movies in American cinema.

Dashiell Hammett Walking Tour

In July, we're going to pay homage to a master of the noir novel, Dashiell Hammett. We'll read his classic mystery The Maltese Falcon, but instead of meeting at the library for a discussion, we'll take BART into San Francisco for the Dashiell Hammett Walking Tour. All the details have yet to be worked out, but the tour is scheduled for Saturday, July 7th. So mark your calendars! And feel free to post any questions, comments, or suggestions.
