Join us for the brand new Retro Flix movie days at your Main Library where we’ll be showing hit films from the 80s and 90s mostly. This month we’ll be showing a great romantic comedy, pairing Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan together in the 1998 hit “You’ve Got Mail.” In this film, bookstore magnate Joe Fox, and independent bookshop owner Kathleen Kelly, fall in love in the anonymity of the Internet…but she is unaware that his business is trying to put her out of business. This film is rated PG for some language and has a run time of two hours.
