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.

April 19: The Lady Vanishes (1938, 97min)

Alfred Hitchcock mixes jeopardy with sex appeal and dry wit in this devilish comic thriller. The headstrong debutante Iris (Margaret Lockwood) meets the charming governess Miss Froy (Dame May Whitty) on a European express train. When Miss Froy abruptly vanishes without a trace, Iris and an English rake (Sir Michael Redgrave) are drawn into a web of mystery and political intrigue. With Paul Lukas, Cecil Parker, Basil Radford and Naunton Wayne.
