New This Week (4/7/16)

Call the library to check availability and request these new items:

When a group of cannibal savages kidnaps settlers from the small town of Bright Hope, an unlikely team of gunslingers, led by Sheriff Franklin Hunt, sets out to bring them home. But their enemy is more ruthless than anyone could have imagined, putting their mission--and survival itself--in serious jeopardy.


Father Brown : Season Three : Part One (NR)
Hop on your bicycle and travel back to the 1950s to join the priestly gumshoe Father Brown for another compelling series of mysteries based on the novels of G. K. Chesterton. Quiet lanes and country houses hold daunting secrets that only Father Brown, using his intuition and skill, will be able to work out much to the chagrin of Inspector Sullivan.

Freeheld (PG-13)
A decorated New Jersey police detective, Laurel is diagnosed with cancer and wants to leave her hard earned pension to her domestic partner, Stacie.

Hard-nosed detective Dane Wells, and activist Steven Goldstein, unite in Laurel and Stacie's defense, rallying police officers and ordinary citizens to support their struggle for equality.

In The Heart Of The Sea (PG-13)
In the winter of 1820, the New England whaling ship Essex was assaulted by a whale of mammoth size.

Legend (R)
As twin brothers, Reggie and Ronnie Kray--London's most notorious gangsters--rise through the criminal underworld, Ronnie advances the family business with violence and intimidation while Reggie struggles to go legitimate for local girl Frances Shea. In and out of prison, Ronnie's unpredictable tendencies and the slow disintegration of Reggie's marriage threaten to bring the brothers' empire tumbling to the ground.

Star Wars : The Force Awakens (PG-13)
As a new threat to the galaxy rises, Rey, a desert scavenger, and Finn, an ex-stormtrooper, must join Han Solo and Chewbacca to search for the one hope of restoring peace.
