Movie: Fahrenheit 451

Join us to watch a movie for teen and adult audiences. Banned Books Week is an annual event that highlights the value of free and open access to information. Fahrenheit 451 (2018) is a film adaptation of Ray Bradbury's dystopian 1953 novel about a brutal totalitarian society in which books are not only banned, but burned, and all history, art, photos and facts are deleted or altered. The movie runs for 100 minutes and is rated TV-14. Light refreshments will be served, and participants can take free banned book giveaways while supplies last. Library staff may take photos, videos, or audio recordings at our events. Please tell us if you do not wish to be photographed, video-recorded, or audio-recorded. We will always respect your requests. An ASL (American Sign Language) interpreter or closed captioning can be provided for this program if requested at least seven (7) days in advance. For assistance, please contact your library or accessibility@aclibrary.org.
