Merrill Film Society Presents : The Shop Around the Corner

Join us at the library for a screening of The Shop Around the Corner (1940), directed by Ernst Lubitsch and starring James Stewart and Margaret Sullivan. This film deftly tells the tale of two coworkers/anonymous pen-pals who don’t realize they are falling in love. Critics hail it as one of the finest romantic comedies of all time and it has been selected to be preserved by the Library of Congress for being “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”. Don’t miss this warm, witty holiday‑season classic filled with heart and humor.
