> BLUE HILL— As part of the Blue Hill Public Library’s “What’s Your  
> Story?” series, the public is invited to a special showing of the  
> film, The Good Soldier, on ThursdayAugust 26th at 7:00 P.M.  The  
> documentary follows the journeys of five combat veterans from  
> different generations of American wars as they sign up, go into  
> battle, and eventually change their minds about what it means to be  
> a good soldier.   Five men who fought variously in World War II,  
> Vietnam, and the Middle East talk about combat in a down-to-earth,  
> matter-of-fact way that gives horrifying new meaning to the term,  
> “brutal realities.” These are men who were taught to kill – and  
> sometimes it came back to haunt them, filling them with anger and  
> regret.
>
> The film was presented by Bill Moyers Journal on PBS and is  
> nominated for a 2010 Emmy Award.  It is directed by Lexy Lovell and  
> Michael Uys, who received the Directors’ Guild of America, Los  
> Angeles Film Critics, and Peabody Awards for another film, Riding  
> the Rails.
>
> After the showing of the film, the directors and a veteran featured  
> in the film will join us by video conference to answer questions  
> from the audience. For more information contact the Library at  
> 374-5515.
