007 in ‘Dr. No’ to air this week

If you have never officially met the legendary and suave James Bond — via film, of course — or if your connection with him has been limited lately, now you’ve got a chance to associate with him up close and personal in a library, of all places.

The first offering of the James Bond film franchise, “Dr. No,” starring Sean Connery, will be shown at 6 p.m. Thursday in the Lincoln Parish Library Meeting Room. It is part of the Art of Film series, a collaboration of the library and the North Central Louisiana Arts Council.
