The East Hampton Library's Films With Pride series for Pride Month will continue this week with screenings on Friday, Tuesday, and Friday, June 16. Tomorrow's selection, at 1 p.m., will be "Moonlight" by Barry Jenkins. A 2016 coming-of-age film about a young Black man in Miami, it won an Oscar for best picture, and garnered a best supporting actor Oscar for Mahershala Ali.

On Tuesday at 5:30 p.m., it'll be "Disarm Hate," a 2020 documentary about a man's quest to build a national rally after the Pulse nightclub massacre in Orlando, Fla. Nicholas Stoller's 2022 "Bros" will be the movie on Friday, June 16, at 1 p.m. This one is about two men with commitment issues who may have finally met their match in each other.

The library can be phoned at 631-324-0222, extension 3, to sign up.
