Teen Movie Night at Manchester Public Library

Teen Movie Night at Manchester Public Library

Join us at Manchester Public Library for Movie Night!  Valentine’s Day is soon. Join us for a romantic movie that was filmed in Manchester.  For three years, Andrew Paxton has slaved as the assistant to Margaret Tate, hard-driving editor at a New York publisher. When Margaret, a Canadian, faces deportation for an expired visa, she hatches a scheme to marry Andrew. Andrew had plans to fly home for the weekend for his grandma's 90th, so Margaret goes with him - to Sitka, Alaska. Tensions between dad and Andrew, an ex-girlfriend, Andrew's dislike of Margaret, and her past, color the next few days, with the INS ready to charge Andrew with fraud and deport Margaret.  This movie stars Sandra Bullock, Ryan Reynolds, and Betty White.
