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.

Montauk Chemists Opens, Minus Pharmacy

Frank Calvo, the longtime pharmacist at White’s Drug and Department Store, which closed on Oct. 31, has opened Montauk Chemists on Main Street and is selling over-the-counter merchandise including vitamins and self-care products. One week after an inspection of the store’s pharmacy, however, he is still awaiting New York State approval to operate it.

Slow Start at New Gosman’s

In some ways, Gosman’s Dock, one of Montauk’s few remaining family-owned and operated businesses until its October 2024 sale, closely resembles the complex of restaurants and shops long revered by locals and visitors alike. In other ways, though, it is markedly different under its new ownership.
