Library of the Early Mind Screening: November 2nd

July 28, 2010 by Betsy Bird   3 comments

I’m helping to host a nice little screening of the documentary Library of the Early Mind in my branch in November.  This will mark the film’s first New York City screening, followed by a question-and-answer session with the filmmakers, and it is free and open to the public.  It is because I love you.  That, and the fact that the filmmakers were nice enough to agree to show it in our auditorium.

Details:

New York Public Library
Stephen A. Schwarzman Building
5th Avenue and 42nd Street
South Court Auditorium at 42nd Street
Tuesday, November 2, 2010
6 to 8 p.m.
(You are also invited to an informal, public “meet and greet” outside the auditorium starting at 5 p.m.)

    What will the distribution be eventually? Is it going to be broadcast on TV or will we need to hope our local librarys show it or will we find it at the local Megaplex?

      Good question. It’s really in the early stages. I’d love for it to hit TV or theaters, but we’ll see. Film festival circuit is the first step. After that, I’ll keep you informed of where it goes.
