The Library will be showing its monthly movie on Saturday, May 14th at 1:30. This month’s feature is “Karate Kid” (PG/140 min.). Dre Parker finds himself in China after his mother's latest career move. He and classmate Mei Ying immediately fall for each other, but cultural differences make this friendship impossible. Even worse, his feelings make an enemy of class bully Cheng, who is quite adept at kung fu. Dre turns to maintenance man Mr. Han, who is secretly a kung fu master, and learns that kung fu is not about punches and parries, but maturity and calm. However, Dre realizes that this may be the fight of his life. The movie is free and popcorn will be served.

This month's selection is "Mrs. Dalloway” by Virginia Woolf. The novel explores the hidden springs of thought and action in one day of a woman s life. Direct and vivid in her account of the details of Clarissa Dalloway's preparations for a party she is to give that evening, the author reveals much more. Simple objects are imbued with real significance and everyday, domestic scenes become beautiful moments to treasure.

Because the Bad Axe High School is performing Hairspray for its spring musical, the library will be showing the movie version of this popular show. It's 1962, and change is in the air in Baltimore. Tracy Turnblad, a big girl with big hair and an even bigger heart, has only one passion--to dance. She wins a spot on the local TV dance program, "The Corny Collins Show" and is transformed overnight from outsider to irrepressible teen celebrity. But can the trendsetting Tracy win the heart of teen-dream Link Larkin and stand up for what she believes in, despite the program's scheming stage manager? All she needs is her best friend Penny, a toe- tappin' beat - and a little HAIRSPRAY!
