The Westport Library will be screening Cowboys & Aliens tonight, Feb. 23, from 6:30 to 9 p.m. in the McManus Room.
Of the 2011 sci-fi/western (directed by Iron Man’s Jon Favreau and staring Daniel Craig, Harrison Ford, and Olivia Wilde), Roger Ebert said, “it's ambitious and well-made. The acting from the large cast is of a high standard.” You can check out his full review here.
From the library: A stranger (Craig) stumbles into the desert town of Absolution with no memory of his past and a mysterious, futuristic shackle around his wrist. With the help of mysterious beauty Ella (Olivia Wilde) and the iron-fisted Colonel Dolarhyde (Ford), he finds himself leading an unlikely posse of cowboys, outlaws and Apache warriors to fight a common enemy from beyond this world in an epic showdown for survival.
