Event Details
Join fellow comedy lovers for a screening of the 1993 film Mrs. Doubtfire, an adaption of the 1987 novel Madame Doubtfire by author Anne Fine about a recently divorced voice actor (played by Robin Williams) who disguises himself as an elderly female housekeeper in order to spend time with his children.
This screening is a part of the Red Skelton Museum of American Comedy’s yearlong book and film festival called Laughter: From Page to Screen. Each month features a pair of programs: a screening of a comedy film adapted from a novel, followed the next evening by a comparative discussion of the book and the film at the Knox County Public Library.
Books for the series are available for checkout at both the Red Skelton Museum of American Comedy and the Knox County Public Library. Popcorn and soda are provided.
