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.

The Sweet Smell of Nostalgia at Sagaponack General

Stepping into the new Sagaponack General Store, which reopened yesterday after being closed since 2020, is a sweet experience, and not just because there’s a soft-serve ice cream station on the left and what promises to be the biggest penny candy selection on the South Fork on your right, but because it’s like seeing an old friend who, after some struggle, made it big. Really, really big.
