In celebration of this year’s Summer Reading Challenge theme of ʻUmeke Kāʻeo, we’ll be showing several food-themed movies on Monday afternoons from now through the end of July. Join us on Monday, July 27th at 2pm for our showing of Chocolat. Starring Juliette Binoche and  Johnny Depp, the story follows a single mother and her young daughter who arrive in a rural French town in the winter of 1959. They proceed to open an unusual chocolate shop that disrupts the moral fiber of the strictly Catholic townsfolk and mayor. The film is rated PG-13 and runs for 2 hours & 1 minute.
