Join Penn’s Village and the Free Library of Philadelphia for Penn’s Village Presents, a free film series at the Philadelphia City Institute Library. Discussion will follow each screening. On the second Mondays of the month (with the exception of October which will be held on the first Monday), we’ll explore the work of Orson Welles through a six-screening retrospective.

The film Delicious (2021) will be screening today. This fabulist gastronomic tale imagines a disgruntled chef to royals creating the first French restaurant—with ravishing cinematography of both food and countryside. But says Outtake Mag, “Strip back the inescapably gobsmacking palette, and you have an enveloping story of regret, freedom and will set against the backdrop of pre-revolutionary France.”

Registration is not required and these films are free and open to the public.
