Monthly Movie Page

Hello Saint Leo Family, I hope are enjoying this beautiful spring weather we are having this week and embarking on some entertaining (yet educational) activities while out in the bright sunshine!

One of the biggest activities of summer is the release of major blockbuster films, but did you know that many of Hollywood's best pictures are based off of literature? One of the most anticipated films helping to kick off the summer season is "The Great Gatsby", starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Tobey Maguire, based off of F. Scott Fitzgerald's masterpiece of the same name. Filled with intrigue, scandal, parties, politics, suspense, and romance, it is the perfect text for summer reading. Did you also know that we hold several copies of this masterpiece in the Daniel Cannon Memorial Library?

If not, now you know! So before you race to the theaters to see the film, why not stop buy, check-out a copy, and make sure you're in the know before you go! Set to release on May 10th, there is still time to get your copy here at the library!

Being as the "Monthly Movie page" will now be a monthly submission, comments and suggestions are strongly welcomed! How do you feel the book compared to the film and vice versa? Did the film live up the expectations of the literature? Favorite parts? Answers to these questions and more are greatly encouraged! Remember to come in and get your copy of the novel today, the Daniel Cannon Memorial Library is open until 5:00pm tonight.

Until Next Time!
