Several films for kids and adults will be shown at local libraries over the next week.

At the East Hampton Library, Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," as depicted in a 2005 adaptation starring Keira Knightley, will be shown in the Baldwin Family Room at 1 p.m. on Friday. "Final Set," about an aging tennis star who attempts to return to the French Open, will be shown as part of the library's Winter Film Festival on Saturday at 2 p.m. It stars Alex Lutz, Ana Giradot, and Kristen Scott Thomas.

Movies are on the schedule on Tuesday and next Thursday at the Hampton Library in Bridgehampton. Tuesday at 3:30, it'll be "Hidden Figures," based on the story of the female African-American mathematicians who were integral to NASA's early space program in the 1960s. This one is for sixth grade and up. The library will show "Soul" next Thursday at 4 p.m. for families. The animated film explores the meaning of life through the story of a music teacher and jazz musician who finally gets his big break, only to land in an in-between place called the Great Before. Popcorn will be served at both screenings.
