Staff Favorites

Want to find your next favorite movie? Check out what the library's avid watchers recommend. 

Lord of the Rings trilogy

I thought about just including the Fellowship, but really... the whole trilogy is just the perfect watch for a cozy winter night. There's nothing like LOTR. —Emily

Fantastic Mr. Fox

The autumnal color palette and folksy pop soundtrack of this stop animated film makes this movie about a fox robbing local farms a very cozy watch. —Gina

Carol (2011)

A smoky and quiet unexpected romance between two women in the 1950s. —Emily

Bringing Up Baby

Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn have to track down a missing leopard ("Baby") in this screwball rom com. —Gina

The Lodge

When a woman meets her partner's kids for the first time, what is supposed to be a cozy Christmas together ends disastrously. —Emily

Trading Places

A Wall Street broker and a street performer are forced into swapping places for a social experiment. Dan Aykroyd and Eddie Murphy headline this movie and it's hilarious! —Gina
