The Film Society of Lincoln Center will celebrate the life, work, and wit of the late award-winning playwright and author Nora Ephron at Stonehenge Village on Tuesday, July 24 with a free screening of her comedy, You’ve Got Mail.

Ephron, who died last month at the age of 71, wrote the Broadway play Imaginary Friends, and was most recently represented on stage as the co-author of Love, Loss, and What I Wore. In addition, she had written the play Lucky Guy, about journalist Mike McAlary, which has been eyeing a Broadway run. She was a noted essayist, author, screenwriter, and filmmaker. In addition to You’ve Got Mail, her many works include Heartburn, Julie & Julia, Sleepless in Seattle, Silkwood, and When Harry Met Sally.

Doors for the You’ve Got Mail screening open at 8:30pm with the film beginning at 9pm. Admission is free, on a first come, first served basis.
