Event Details

Coronado Public Library, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival, presents FILM FORUM CORONADO, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the library's Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story.

October 16: In the Palm of Your Hand (1951, Not Rated, 112 min, Spanish with English subtitles)

Roberto Galvadon directed this entrancingly sensuous drama of deception, seduction and murder. A fraudulent clairvoyant (Arturo de Córdova) uses the secrets of his female clients to blackmail them, while being a pawn in the higher game played by a treacherous widow (Leticia Palma).
