Friday Night Film Series

The Friends of the Thomaston Library present:




Gigi
Friday, January 7th
6:30 PM
Room 208, Thomaston Academy Building

Leslie Caron stars as Gigi, an avant-garde French waif being groomed as the fille de joie of affluent and handsome Gaston (Louis Jourdan). Soon Gigi metamorphoses into a stunning beauty, and the head-over-heels Gaston asks for her hand. But Gigi's courtesan grandmother is aghast: No one in the family has ever considered something as plebian as matrimony. This 1958 film won Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director (Vincente Minnelli).


Friday Night Films are presented free of charge but donations are gratefully accepted. The Thomaston Academy Building is handicapped accessable from the parking lot entrance. Light refreshments will be served. For more information call the library at 354-2453.
