STILL ALICE SCREENING AT YOUR HOME PUBLIC LIBRARY IN JC

Based on the book by Lisa Genova, the 2014 drama follows its title character, played by Julianne Moore, through her diagnosis and initial symptoms of early onset Alzheimer’s. The story illustrates her illness’s effects on her own life: as she begins to lose things more frequently and have short bouts of confusion, she experiences anxiety about the more significant things her memory might lose in the future, like her daughter’s name. Her daughter (Kristen Stewart) and husband (Alec Baldwin) also must reimagine their family and their relationships with Alice, deciding which parts of life must change and what can continue on as usual. Still Alice will be shown on May 17 at 6pm at Your Home Public Library. Admission is free. Rated PG-13.

Your Home Public Library, located at 107 Main St. in Johnson City, hosts regular movie nights and film screenings throughout the year. More info is available at yhpl.org.
