Event Details

The book was better... Or was it?

Read classic and popular books at home, then join us on the second Saturday of the month to see the book come to life in film. After the viewing, we'll discuss the book, the movie, and everything in between. Remember—don't judge a book by its movie. Or vice versa!

In October...

READ IT: Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie
WATCH IT: Murder on the Orient Express (2017; Rated PG-13)

DESCRIPTION: Famed Belgian detective Hercule Poirot is travelling on the Orient Express when a murder is committed. The victim was a particularly obnoxious man with a criminal past. As clues are revealed, it is apparent that many of the other passengers on the train had a motive to kill him, making Poirot's task of identifying the murderer much more difficult.

Psst... Light snacks and drinks will be provided. Feel free to bring in your own lunch if you like!

Ages 18 and up. Registration is required for a select number of reserved seats.
Additional seating will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Questions? E-mail Jenn at jennifer@bcplib.org.
