  • Lady Vanishes at Library

    Lady Vanishes at Library

    FRAMINGHAM, MA – the Framingham Public Library Summer Film Series will be showing Alfred Hitchcock’s 1938 comedy thriller “The Lady Vanishes” starring Margaret Lockwood and Michael Redgrave on Thursday, July 29th at 7 p.m at the Main Library.

    MOVIE MOSTER - The Lady Vanishes, (1938) Hitchcock film shown at Framingham Library, July 29 ,2010
    (1938) Alfred Hitchcock film showing at Framingham Library, July 29 ,2010

    The film will be introduced by Dr. Claudia Springer, Assistant Professor of Film Studies at Framingham State College. Ice Cream from Mad Willies will be served after the film.

    The Edinburgh University Film Society writes, “[the film] has all the ingenuity and unparalleled mastery of suspense that made Hitchcock’s Hollywood output so acclaimed and popular. It also however has a lightness of touch and warmth of humor that his later films lack.

    The Framingham Public Library Main Branch is located at 49 Lexington St., (just off Rt. 126 / Concord St. near Downtown Framingham).

    For additional info about library programs, contact the Framingham Library at (508) 532-5570, (for TTY users: 508-872-2775), or visit the library website at: www.framinghamlibrary.org
