The Mississippi Mills Film Society’s first showing of the season is Sunday, 14 Sept at 2 pm at the Almonte Legion. “The Penguin Lessons” is the fascinating look at a real story of an English teacher who lands in Argentina and find himself the custodian of a real penguin. Who can resist the antics of such a cute animal? Rated PG13, this comedy-drama will be a great way to kick off the film series. Tickets are $15 available through www.ticketsplease.ca . The Legion is accessible and seating is first come/first served. Proceeds from the MM Film Society go to support library programs! thank you!
And… if you miss the opportunity to see Penguin Lessons at the Legion, Almonte branch is screening the same film on Wednesday, 24 September at 1pm.
