Weekend Movie Matinees at the Islamorada Library branch

Need a break on the weekend? Stop in at the Islamorada Library branch, 81830 Overseas Highway, at 12:30 p.m. on Saturdays for some free film fare. You do not need to have a Monroe County Public Library card to attend.

Please note: No matinees are scheduled for September and October while the building is closed for a refresh.

Here's what we're showing this month:

August 2: Scott Pilgrim vs the World (2010, PG-13, 103 minutes)

Fifteen years later, this fever dream ode to comics and video games still remains as unique and funny as ever. When guitarist Scott Pilgrim (Michael Cera) falls for the aloof Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), he finds he cannot win her heart until he does battle with an army of her evil ex-boyfriends.

August 9: The Big Lebowski (1998, R, 118 minutes)

It’s National Bowling Day, and this quirky Coen Brothers comedy is a good reminder that few friends are closer than bowling buddies. Jeff Bridges plays “The Dude,” a slacker who gets mistaken for a millionaire, and once said millionaire’s wife is kidnapped, “The Dude” and his bowling afficionados attempt to rescue her.

August 16: National Lampoon’s Vacation (1983, R, 98 minutes)

Join the Griswolds for a trip to Walley World and ride “The Whipper Snapper” and “The Colossus” in honor of National Roller Coaster Day. Clark Griswold (Chevy Chase) takes his family on a cross-country trip from Chicago to Los Angeles, encountering such obstacles as vandals, sheriffs, deteriorating vehicles, and worse yet: his in-laws.

August 23: Edward Scissorhands (1990, 105 minutes, PG-13)

Celebrate the 35^th anniversary of this early Tim Burton classic. Edward (Johnny Depp), an artificial humanoid whose hands were never completed, stumbles upon an idyllic suburban town. There, he makes attempts to fit in to impress the moody Kim Boggs (Winona Ryder).

August 30: Surf’s Up (2007, PG, 85 minutes)

Hang ten on National Beach Day with this animated mockumentary from Sony Animation. Teen penguin Cody Maverick (Shia LaBeouf) enters a surfing competition and manages to convince a cynical and retired legend “Big Z” (Jeff Bridges) to be his trainer.
