Jeff Belanger, ghost expert from PBS, will give a one-hour talk this evening called "Ghosts and Legends."  This is an early Halloween celebration for us all to enjoy and is suitable for adults, teen and older children (as the topic might be a bit scary for young kids).  Jeff will tell ghost stories about real sightings, and will share research and evidence from around the world.  For the last 19 years he has searched the world for paranormal legends that have seeped into folkore and even history books. Mr. Belanger is the author of more than a dozen books on the paranomral that have been published in six languages.  He is the Emmy-nominated host of CBS's "New England Legends," founder of the website www.Ghostvillage.com, and Travel Channel's "Ghost Adventures" writer.  He has lectured at libraries, universities, corporations, MENSA's national conference and other forums.    This talk will include images, audio clips and video, plus a question and answer session at the end for the audience.  He will also have autographed books available for purchase. 

Jeff says this: "I can't wait to haunt the Milton Public Library.  We'll dim the lights, talk about the ghost experience and see the evidence and theories regarding the paranormal.  I've spoken on the topic of the supernatural all over the world - there's nothing like sharing in this discussion in person."  This program is free and open to the public, and is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library.  Happy Halloween everyone!

In this wonderful film called "The Public," an unusually bitter Arctic blast has made it's way to downtown Cincinnati and to the front doors of the public library where the action takes place.  The script was written by Emilio Estevez, who has also composed a discussion guide for it with Ryan Down, a strong homelessness advocate from Chicago.  In this story, at odds with library oficials over how to handle the extreme weather event, some homeless patrons turn the building into a shelter for the night by staging an "Occupy" sit-in.

What begins as an act of civil disobedience becomes a stand-off with police and a rush-to-judgement media constantly speculating about what's really happening.  This David versus Goliath story tackles some of our nation's most challenging issues - homelessness and mental illness - and sets the drama inside one of the last bastions of democracy-in-action:  your public library.  The movie stars Emilio Estevez, Jena Malone, Taylor Schilling, Christian Slater, Gabrielle Union, Jeffrey Wright, Michael K. Williams, Che "RHYMEFEST" Smith, Alec Baldwin, and Jacob Vargas.  It is a very inspiring tale about "doing the right thing" that everyone should see! 

It's rated PG-13 for some thematic material, nudity, language and suggestive content and the running time is 2 hours.  This program is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library and is free and open to the public.

Calling all Cooks!  The Milton Public Library Cookbook Club, led by local chef Connie Spiros and Assistant Director Sara Truog, invites you to its next session on Monday, November 18 from 6:30-7:30pm.  Each club meeting will feature a selected cookbook, and members will prepare a tasty treat from the book to bring to the Library and share.  The cookbook chosen for November is The Pioneer Woman Cooks: A Year of Holidays by Ree Drummond.

• Once you've chosen your recipe, contact Sara by email (struog@ocln.org) or phone (617-898-4951) to let her know what recipe you’ll be trying so we don't have a lot of duplication in the dishes we'll sample on meeting night!

Tonight there will be a free screening of the film "Can You Ever Forgive Me?" (c2018) which stars Melissa McCarthy and Richard E. Grant.   McCarthy is masterful in this captivating account-based on a true story - of Lee Israel, a best-selling celebrity biographer in the 1970s and 1980s, and Grant plays her good friend with whom she confides.  When Lee comes to the realization that she's no longer in vogue after writing a biography of Estee Lauder which is not selling, she spins her art form into a perilous web of lies, deceit and outright crime to get back on top.  She starts forging and selling letters assumed to be written by famous authors and playwrights, and gets away with it for quite some time successfully.  This film it is based on the book by the same name, which is a title taken from a forged letter line in which she posed as Dorothy Parker.  McCarthy and Grant earned Academy Award nominations for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor respectively for their brilliant work in this movie.  This is a fascinating study of human nature under pressure - please check it out if you have not seen it yet.   This program is kindly sponsored by the Friends of the Milton Public Library and is free and open to the public.
