Williamsburg Library Theatre
515 Scotland St.
Thursday, February 9, 2012, 2 – 4pm

“Great Books, Great Movies” is the theme for the Williamsburg Regional Library’s Thursday Afternoon Film Series in February, featuring films based on classic novels.

Call the Adult Services Department at (757) 259-4050 or visit wrl.org for more information.

Feb. 2 – Great Expectations (1946)
David Lean directed this sterling version of Charles Dickens’ 1860 novel about a young man’s adventures in Victorian England. The great cast includes John Mills, Jean Simmons, Alec Guinness, Martita Hunt and Valerie Hobson. The movie won Oscars for Art Direction and Guy Green’s evocative cinematography.

Feb. 9 – The Letter (1940)
Bette Davis does stellar work as a Malaysian plantation owner’s wife on trial for murder. This steamy melodrama, based on a short story by W. Somerset Maugham, was nominated for seven Academy Awards. Directed by William Wyler, the movie costars Herbert Marshall, James Stephenson and Gale Sondergaard as a particularly menacing native woman.

Feb. 16 – Les Miserables (1935)
Victor Hugo’s epic novel is well served in producer Darryl F. Zanuck’s adaptation which features Fredric March as Jean Valjean and Charles Laughton as that relentless pursuer of criminals, Inspector Javert. John Beal, Rochelle Hudson and Cedric Hardwicke costar under the direction of Richard Boleslawski. This is a non-musical version of the story.

Feb. 23 – The Heiress (1949)
Olivia de Havilland is heartbreaking as a shy heiress being wooed by a man (Montgomery Clift) whom her father (Ralph Richardson) believes to be a fortune hunter. This first-rate film, directed by William Wyler, was nominated for eight Academy Awards, winning four of them including the Best Actress Oscar for de Havilland.

Coyote Run lyrics engage the audience in story after story. Their source material includes the poetry of Burns, Yeats, Shakespeare, Henley, Tennyson, Blake and Kipling, as well as legend, myth and history.

The unknown story of African-American battalions in World War II, focusing on the actions of the 761st, which helped spearhead Patton's Third Army and liberated Nazi concentration camps. This powerful film vividly records the experiences of the soldiers, who were utterly unprepared for the atrocities they witnessed, as well as the astonishment of the camp inmates, some of whom had never seen a black person before. It bears witness to the courage of Holocaust survivors and the heroism of men forced to fight on two fronts - battling discrimination at home as they fought for their country overseas. This outstanding documentary is narrated by Denzel Washington and Louis Gossett, Jr.

February 18: Glory.
Starring Denzel Washington, Morgan Freeman, and Matthew Broderick, this 1989 movie chronicles the all-black 54th Regiment of the Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry. Their final assault on Fort Wagner, S.C. demonstrated their bravery and turned a bitter defeat into a symbolic victory that brought recognition to black soldiers.

February 25: Buffalo Soldiers.
Starring Danny Glover, this 1997 movie tells the true story of the black cavalry corps known as the Buffalo Soldiers. These troops patrolled America's west after the Civil War. In addition to keeping the peace, these men had to fight the racism of their commanders and other white soldiers.

Saturday, February 11, 2012, 7:30 – 10pm

Your last chance to see Coyote Run in concert at the Williamsburg Library Theatre comes Friday, Feb. 10 and Saturday, Feb. 11 at 7:30 p.m. The group, known since 1999 for their sweeping soundscapes, earthy Celtic vibes, and festive holiday celebrations is calling it quits in 2012. That makes this pair of acoustic concerts in the Williamsburg Library Theatre’s intimate setting that much more special. Tickets are $16 for adults, $14 for Friends of the Williamsburg Regional Library and $8 for students under 16. They may be purchased at the Theatre (515 Scotland St.) or reserved by calling (757) 259-4070. This is another in Williamsburg Regional Library’s Dewey Decibel Concert Series.

With deep roots in Celtic music and mythic literature, Coyote Run's music includes their signature sounds of growling didgeridoo, fiddle, tribal drums, and bass-lines, all combined with tight vocal harmonies. Coyote Run lyrics engage the audience in story after story. Their source material includes the poetry of Burns, Yeats, Shakespeare, Henley, Tennyson, Blake and Kipling, as well as legend, myth and history.

“Listening to Coyote Run makes me think of a large library, where every book you open gives you a view of something fascinating.” – Art Ketchen, Celtic Beat Magazine
