Brown Bag with Film Critic Colin Covert Wed. 2/16

Please join us from noon to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, February 16 for a brown bag with Star Tribune film critic Colin Covert, at the E. Lake Public Library, 2727 E. Lake St., Minneapolis. According to his Star Tribune bio, “Colin Covert has covered films for the Star Tribune for 20 years, interviewing Peter Jackson, Kate Winslet, Steven Spielberg, Cate Blanchett, Quentin Tarantino, Neil Gaiman and John Travolta, to name a few. Colin’s job as a film critic consists mostly of thinking up synonyms for “mediocre.” He still gets a thrill when the lights dim, and all too often a bigger thrill when they come on again.
