4 Wednesday: Coronado Public Library, in partnership with the Coronado Island Film Festival, presents Film Forum Coronado, taking place the first and third Wednesday of each month at 6 p.m. in the library’s Winn Room. Film expert Ralph DeLauro provides a brief introduction to each film and leads a discussion afterwards, often including pointers about how lighting or camera angles contribute to a scene’s mood or propel the story.
On Dec. 4, “The Russian Question” will be discussed.
5 Thursday: Author David Davenport, a research fellow emeritus at the Hoover Institute, will discuss hisbook, “A Republic If We Can Teach It: Fixing America’s Civic Education Crisis” at 11 a.m. in the Winn Room of the Coronado Public Library.
