and delight movie-goers. Join us for one or purchase a pass for all 8 and get one film free! Doors at 7:00pm Film at 7:30pm In the mid-19th century, Emily Dickinson is writing prolifically, baking gingerbread, and enjoying a passionate, lifelong romantic relationship with another woman, her friend and sister-in-law Susan...yes this is the iconic American poet, popularly thought to have been a recluse. Beloved comic Molly Shannon leads in this humorous yet bold reappraisal of Dickinson, informed by her private letters. While seeking publication of some of the 1,775 poems written during her lifetime, Emily (Shannon) finds herself facing a troupe of male literary gatekeepers too confused by her genius to take her work seriously. Instead her work attracts the attention of an ambitious woman editor, who also sees Emily as a convenient cover for her own role in buttoned-up Amherst's most bizarre love triangle. 2019 Rating: PG-13 (for sexual content) Genre: Comedy, Drama Directed By: Madeleine Olnek Written By: Madeleine Olnek Runtime: 84 minutes
