Robey Memorial Library to host Matinee Movie series ...

Robey Memorial Library in Waukon is hosting a Matinee Movie series the second Saturday of both January and February, both beginning at 1:30 p.m. Viewers are invited to bring their own movie snacks.

Saturday, January 11 at 1:30 p.m. the library will show “They Shall Not Grow Old.” On the centenary of the end of the First World War, Academy Award® winner Peter Jackson (The Lord of the Rings trilogy) presents new work showing the Great War as never seen. Using state of the art technology to restore original archival footage that’s more than 100 years old, Jackson brings to life the people who can best tell this story: the men who were there. (Rated R)

Saturday, February 8 at 1:30 p.m. the library will show “The Million-Dollar Duck.” Wildlife artists enter the Federal Duck Stamp Contest, the winner of which is decided by the U.S. government. Only one entrant can win the prestigious event. (Not Rated). Contact Robey Memorial Library for more information at 563-568-4424, robeymemorial@waukon.lib.ia.us or www.waukon.lib.ia.us.
