FILM FORUM CORONADO: "Robot & Frank"

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.

February 25: Robot & Frank (2012, PG-13, 89 min)

A wily Frank Langella shines as a slightly dotty ex-jewel thief in this smart and snappy futuristic yarn. Worried about his father’s increasing state of disorientation, his son (James Marsden) hires a robot to act as his dad’s aide and life coach. Before long Frank and the robot carry out a series of daring neighborhood burglaries. With Susan Sarandon, Liv Tyler and Peter Skarsgaard.

PLEASE NOTE this film will take place on the fourth Wednesday of the month.
