Friday Night Film Series

The Friends of the Thomaston Public Library present:

The Letter
Friday, September 11th
6:30 p.m.
Thomaston Academy Building, Room 208

Based on W. Somerset Maugham's novel and directed by William Wyler, this drama stars Bette Davis in one of her nastiest film roles. After shooting Geoffrey (David Newell), Leslie (Davis) tells husband Robert (Herbert Marshall) and their lawyer (James Stephenson) that it was self-defense. But Leslie's case begins to fall apart when a letter reveals that she may have planned the murder, and Geoffrey's widow (Gale Sondergaard) attempts blackmail.

The Friday Night Film Series is presented by the Friends of the Thomaston Public Library and is hosted by Erika Pfander. September's films are a salute to Bette Davis. Doors open at 6:00 and admission, as always, is free. Donations are gratefully accepted and light refreshments will be served. For more information call the Library at 354-2453.
