What better way to spend an autumn Sunday afternoon than watching a cinematic gem on a big screen – for free?

Norwich Public Library will host Sunday films in October and November curated and introduced by Dan Davis, a Norwich-based film columnist.  Both films will deal with the theme of the con-artist. Screenings take place at 1:00 pm in the library’s community room and are free and open to the public.
