Do you enjoy a good spy thriller? The library has many books in this popular genre, but did you know that we also have spy thrillers on DVD? Our extensive DVD collection has something for everyone including those of us who enjoy a good spy film. This happens to be one of my favorite movie categories (for my husband, too), and let me tell you, during the past year with so much time spent at home, we have watched a lot of movies. A lot. Since I enjoy movies about spies and espionage, I thought you might, too, so here is a sampling of titles available at the library. If you want to look for even more spy-themed films, here are two searches to try in our online catalog at www.fvrl.org: 1) espionage drama 2) spies drama.
