Suggested Listening & Viewing: October 2, 2026

Linda Reimer

Hi everyone, here is our weekly Suggested Listening and Viewing post; featuring one album or musical collection for your listening pleasure; one movie or TV show/season for your viewing pleasure and one recommendation for background viewing – perfect for having on while having dinner, reading or just hanging out at home. Enjoy! 

–

First off the music this week the album:

Astral Weeks (1968) by Van Morrison 

 

About The Album: Astral Weeks is singer-songwriter Van Morrison’s second album and blends elements of folk, jazz, classical music and rock and has an almost mystical quality to its eight songs – it is a mellow, reflective album and perfect listening for this first weekend in October.  

–

Moving on to our suggested viewing title of the week; this week our recommendation is the movie:

Coherence (2013) 

 

Available Formats: Available for request as a standard DVD, also available to stream from the library via Kanopy or Hoopla, and may be streamed from the usual online sources.  

About The Movie: A small dinner party is being held in a typical neighborhood on a night when a comet flies close by the earth; during the festivities the power goes out, and cell phones stop working. One of the partygoers walks to a nearby house, the only one in the immediate vicinity that has lights on, to see if the people there have a working phone – only to see the members of the dinner party at the house he just left – having dinner in that house.  

As the film unfolds the people at the dinner party realize that the comet has impacted space time and created local alternate realities; the people from these realities, are the same people seen at the dinner party at the beginning of the film, but the alternate versions of the partygoers when they meet the initial partygoing group is different, sometimes subtlety so and sometimes more overtly so, because those people made different decisions earlier in the evening.  And one of the partygoers decides she’d like to replace herself in one of the other realities, one where the evening has gone well for her – thinking she’ll have a better life. She discovers towards the end of the film, which does have an opened-ended ending; meaning in this case, that not all the questions are answered –  she discovers that she may be wrong in thinking this new reality will be a good fit for her. 

This is one of those neat mind-bending “what if” films for those that like that style of film.  

And as a bonus, if you haven’t already seen it, I also recommend the series Dark which also features alternate realities and time travel; it is set in a small town, following four connected families and explores how the past, present and future are connected; it was super in its first two seasons, if a bit rushed to complete the story in its third.  

Here is the trailer for the TV series: 

Dark (2017 – 2020) 

 

Note: Dark is only available via Netflix & should have English dialogue although it was originally done with German dialogue and that version too was accessible on Netflix the last time I had a subscription.  

And as both those video recommendations are a bit on the dark side, I’m also going to recommend a screwball comedy from Hollywood’s Golden Age, for those looking for a humorous film this weekend: 

Bringing Up Baby (1938)  

Directed by Howard Hawkes and starring Kathryn Hepburn & Cary Grant 

 

Available Formats: You can request a copy of the DVD from the library or stream the movie via Kanopy. The movie is also available to stream through the usual online stores.

Background Viewing

(Perfect to have on while having dinner, reading etc.)

Crackling Fireplace ambient sounds 

 

And on a upcoming programs note, “upcoming” in this case meaning this afternoon! We’re showing a matinee of the comedy/mystery classic film:

Murder by Death (1976)

The film stars Peter Falk, Peter Sellers, David Niven, Maggie Smith, Alec Guinness, James Coco, Truman Capote and Elsa Lancaster.

So if you’ve got nothing on deck this afternoon, join us for the matinee which starts at 2:00 p.m. and runs 94 minutes.

Everyone is welcome & snacks will be provided

Have a great weekend!

Suggested Listening & Viewing: September 25, 2026

Linda Reimer

Hi everyone, here is our weekly Suggested Listening and Viewing post; featuring one album or musical collection for your listening pleasure; one movie or TV show/season for your viewing pleasure and one recommendation for background viewing – perfect for having on while having dinner, reading or just hanging out at home. Enjoy! 

–

First off the music, this week an album which complements the Americana vibe of the movies; it is the soundtrack to the Ken Burns documentary on the Civil War.

The Civil War Soundtrack (1990)

–

Moving on to our suggested viewing titles of the week; this week I couldn’t pair it down to just one movie – so we have two historical drama recommendations:

Shenandoah (1965)

About Formats: This movie is available in the both the streaming & DVD formats; you can request a standard DVD of this film from the library.

About The Movie: Shenandoah stars Jimmy Stewart and an ensemble cast including Doug McClure, Glenn Corbett, Patrick Wayne & Katherine Ross. The film is set in Virginia during the Civil War and tells the tale of widowed farmer Charlie Anderson and his family, which includes six sons, a daughter and daughter-in-law. Charlie opposes slavery but does not support the Union either saying that the conflict is not his business and insisting his family members stay out of it. Despite Charlie’s best efforts his family is unable to stay out of the conflict; his daughter Jennie marries a Confederate soldier and his youngest son, who he refers to as “Boy,” is out hunting one day and is captured by Union soldiers who believe he is a rebel. Charlie and most of his family go out in search of Boy, leaving one son, his wife and infant daughter at home. And the story unfolds further from there —

–

Drums Along the Mohawk (1939)

About Formats: This movie is available in streaming and DVD formats; and may be checked out of the library in standard DVD format.

About The Movie: The film stars Henry Fonda & Claudette Colbert and featured Edna May Oliver, Ward Bond and John Carradine; it is set in the 1770s and tells the story of Gilbert Martin (Fonda) who marries Lana Borst (Colbert) and takes her to live on his small farm, located in the Mohawk Valley in central New York, which was then on the western frontier. The duo and their neighbors work to clear the land and build lives for themselves; and then the American Revolution breaks out. Martin joins the patriot army; there are encounters with Native American and loyalist troops and residents have to leave their homes and flee to nearby Fort Schuyler for safety. To sum it up, although the film is set during a war – it isn’t really about the war, instead it is about the everyday people living through the conflict  – John Ford style of course, as he directed the film.

Suggested Listening & Viewing: September 11, 2026

Linda Reimer

Hi everyone, here is the belated recommended weekly Suggested Listening and Viewing post; the one I thought I had set to publish last Friday, and didn’t (Opps! & Sorry about that!) Enjoy! 

And as I was going to suggest items that had to do with the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on 9.11.2001, and that date has now passed – here are some soothing recommendations to start off your week.

–

First off the music, this week and album:

In The Wee Small Hours of the Morning (1955) by Frank Sinatra

–

Moving on to our suggested viewing title of the week; this week our recommendation is

The Philadelphia Story (1940)

Available Formats: Streaming for the usual streaming services, also available on regular DVD and Blu-ray; and the movie will

About The Movie: The movie The Philadelphia Story, is based upon a Broadway play of the same name and tells the tale of a divorced socialite named Tracy Lord (Katherine Hepburn) who was previously married to C. K. Dexter Haven (Cary Grant) with whom she shared a passionate and bumpy relationship; and is now about to marry another man, George Kittredge – who is much more of an easy going man than Dexter Haven; in a big wedding.

As the story unfolds, viewers meet the charming C. K. Dexter Haven who, to use a modern phrase, gate crashes the events leading up to the scheduled wedding and is joined in the upheaval department by Mike Connor (Jimmy Stewart) and Liz Imbrie (Ruth Hussey), respectively as a reporter and photographer who have been pressured into taking on assumed roles; as friends of Tracy’s diplomatic brother Junius, to create a story about the wedding of Tracy and her new beau; Tracy being a press-avoidance person. Also joining the group for the pre-wedding upheaval are Tracy’s mother, sister, uncle and father.

The movie is a comedy classic with a bit of drama and was nominated for several Academy Awards; Stewart won the Oscar for best actor for his performance as Mike Connor.

Available Formats: Streaming for the usual streaming services, also available on regular DVD and Blu-ray; and the movie can also be checked out of the library on DVD.

Suggested Listening & Viewing: January 2, 2026

Linda Reimer

Happy Friday everyone & best wishes for a happy, healthy & prosperous 2026! 

As is now the post-holiday season, the library is open our usual hours today and tomorrow, 9:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. today (Friday) and 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. on Saturday.  

This week’s Suggested Listening & Viewing blog post has been cancelled due to a challenge pitched the library’s way by YouTube itself. It seems that YouTube thinks the new library IP address might be malicious, and so it is blocking anyone using YouTube at the library to access videos without signing in.

  

So instead of sharing the music and trailer clips I was going to share, I will share information about how you can access digital library content, some of which, for example anything in the Hoopla or Kanopy catalogs, offers on-demand access.  

And I should note, you can probably access YouTube as a guest, without logging in at your location if you’ve done it before – or have used your internet service for a long time. As you may know, you can search for songs, music playlists (i.e. New Years Jazz, New Year’s Easy Listening etc.) or ambience videos (i.s. Winter Fireplace, Coffee Shop Jazz, relaxing ambience, snow falling background music etc). Just go to https://www.youtube.com/ and type whatever your subject in the search box.

Having said that, let’s jump in! 

The library has four catalogs you can access online; and you can look at all four without a library card; however, to actually do anything in any catalog, except look that is, you have to have a library card.  

1. StarCat: The catalog of physical library materials for the entire Southern Tier Library System; where you can go to see what items you have checked out and place holds for items. StarCat can be accessed through the library’s website found at https://ssclibrary.org/ or you can go directly to the catalog by clicking/tapping on the following link: https://starcat.stls.orgStarCat does not feature a companion app.  

2. Hoopla: This catalog, the only one of the four listed that is only accessible to SSC Library patrons (meaning you need a library card from our library that starts with the numbers 10014)* features the following digital content: audiobooks, eBooks, comics, TV shows, movies and albums. All content is available on-demand – so you don’t have to wait for it. Hoopla features a companion app, which you can access from the store on your mobile device or smart tv. You can also access Hoopla through a web browser on a computer by going to the following webpage: https://www.hoopladigital.com/ 

3. Kanopy: This catalog features streaming videos for the whole family. Kanopy is an on-demand catalog. You can download the Kanopy app through the app store on your mobile device or smart V, or access it online via the following link: https://www.kanopy.com/en/catalog 

4. Libby (formerly OverDrive): Libby features eBooks, digital audiobooks and digital magazines. The eBooks and audiobooks are available in the one copy/one user lending model; which means they may be checked out just like print books one-cop-per-one-patron at a time. The magazines are available in the simultaneous access/on demand lending model. You can access Libby by downloading the app from your app store, or by going to the Digital Catalog online, and it is available in two web browser formats the newer one is: https://libbyapp.com and the older one, which long time library patrons will recognize is https://stls.overdrive.com/  

Have a great weekend everyone! 

Linda Reimer, SSCL

*Hoopla is the lone catalog of the four mentioned, that is paid for solely by the Southeast Steuben County Library; and that is why it is available only to Southeast Steuben County Library cardholders.

The other three catalogs, StarCat, Libby & Kanopy, are paid for by the 48-member Southern Tier Library System, which our library is a member of – and those catalogs can be logged into by anyone with a card from any of the Southern Tier Library System member libraries, which includes all the public libraries in Steuben, Chemung, Yates, Allegheny and Schuyler Counties.

Friday Night Free Film: Foxcatcher (2014): Based on true events, “Foxcatcher” tells the dark and fascinating story of the unlikely and ultimately tragic relationship between an eccentric multi-millionaire (Steve Carell) and two champion wrestlers (Channing Tatum and Mark Ruffalo). Directed by Academy Award nominee Bennett Miller (2005, Best Director, “Capote”) it is a rich and moving story of brotherly love, misguided loyalty, and the corruption and emotional bankruptcy that can accompany great power and wealth.

Foxcatcher was nominated for five Academy Awards including Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Makeup. MPAA Rating: R. Run Time: 134 minutes.
