206 S. Market
Marion, Illinois 62959

The “Read the Movie, Watch the Book” selection follows five women and four men as they try to sort out the signals that the sexes exchange in this 2009 comedy/drama. Gigi imagines every man she meets is Mr. Right; she gets reality checks from Alex, a sweet but cynical saloon keeper. Janine and Ben seem solidly married until he chats with Anna in a market checkout line, meanwhile Anna is indifferent to the pursuing Connor. Neil and Beth have been together seven years; she dumps him when she realizes he really and truly isn’t going to marry her. And Mary sells advertising while searching on-line for a man. Based on the 2006 book by Greg Behrendt and Liz Tuccillo. The movie is rated PG-13. Discussion time will be available after the film. Free and open to the public.
