Are you looking for something to do on a Wednesday afternoon? Join us once a month for a classic movie. Meet John Doe (1941) Starring Barbara Stanwyck, Edward Arnold and Gary Cooper

A reporter (Barbara Stanwyck) writes a fictitious column about someone named "John Doe," who is distraught at America's neglect of the little people and plans to kill himself. The newspaper then hires an ex-ballplayer (Gary Cooper) to pose as John Doe. In a series of radio addresses written by a publisher with fascist leanings, Doe captures the public's imagination. When he finally realizes he has been used, Doe comes to his senses and becomes the man he never knew he could be.

Bring your lunch and enjoy a discussion about the movie. Light refreshments provided.
