Movies for Teens

Join us for some entertaining movies and tasty popcorn during the upcoming film series for teens in the Hubbard Room. The movies will be shown on Wednesdays at 1:30 and include:

  • Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest on August 6 - Captain Jack owes a blood debt to the legendary Davy Jones, who captains the ghostly Flying Dutchman. Unless Jack can find a way out, he will be cursed to an afterlife of eternal servitude and damnation;
  • The Net on August 13 – Angela Bennet, a freelance software analyst, is inadvertently drawn into a dangerous conspiracy when a client asks her to de-bug a CD-ROM game. Soon the client turns up dead and Angela is next on the hit-list. After the assassins obliterate her official identity, Angela realizes hers is not the only life being destroyed on the Net;
  • Monty Python and the Holy Grail on August 20 - The quest for the Holy Grail by King Arthur and his Knights of the Round Table is retold in the inimitable Python fashion; and
  • Clueless on August 27 - Still as smart and charming as ever, Clueless gets a fresh, sassy makeover for this new 'Whatever!' Collectors Edition. Alicia Silverstone sparkles as Cher, the matchmaking 15-year-old Beverly Hills High student who has shopping and boys on her mind.
