Welcome to our Virtual Friday Night Film Discussions! We’ll be discussing “Courted” – Here Fabrice Luchini plays a stern judge who is suddenly aware of a potential juror as she enters his court.

The way it works:

PRIOR to the meeting (whenever works for your schedule), watch “Courted” on Hoopla – one of the library’s video streaming service – and then come to the meeting prepared to discuss!

You will need an Ashland library card or a Boston Public Library e-card to use Hoopla. Click here to access Hoopla or for more info on the BPL e-card (see if you are eligible and then register – you can use any of BPL’s online resources with this card!).

Please register to receive the program link – which will be in your confirmation and reminder emails (check your spam folder for them!). Contact ashlandprograms@minlib.net with any questions.

Michel Racine is a vinegary, recently divorced French criminal court judge, feared by everyone, but he turns into a middle-aged softie when confronted with a juror he once loved.
