Classic Flicks, a monthly series hosted by the Hailey Public Library, continues with a 1974 film featuring Robert Redford and Mia Farrow and offered as part of the 2024 Winter Read. The showing will be held on Thursday, February 8, at 6 p.m., at Town Center West. The romantic drama features social class conflicts, the American dream, glamour, obsession, and the extravagant parties of the 1920s.
“Each year Winter Read fosters a wonderful community conversation around a worthy book,” commented Kristin Fletcher, the library’s programs manager. “This year we’ve added a new twist by showing a movie based on this 1925 masterpiece written by F. Scott Fitzgerald.”
Fletcher continued, “The March Classic Flick will feature Henry Fonda starring in a drama about an Oklahoma family during the Dust Bowl. Upcoming films star Cary Grant and Katherine Hepburn in a romantic comedy, Fred Astaire showing off his famous dance steps, and conclude with an iconic 1933 Marx Brothers comedy.”
