Movie: Bob Trevino Likes It

This PG-13 comedy/drama from 2025 was inspired by the friendship that writer/director Tracie Laymon found with a stranger when looking for her father online. 

Often playing the role of caretaker to people like her father who should be caring for her, Lily Trevino longs for a familial connection, having been abandoned by her mother as a child and then suddenly by her father in her twenties. 

Bob Trevino works long hours alone at a construction company to support his wife Jeanie's scrapbooking habit. The couple has endured a lot in the past decade, and Bob has sought to put his wife first, to the point of ignoring his own feelings and need for friendship, meaning, and connection--that is, until he gets an unexpected Facebook message from a stranger.

Film screenings are made possible by the Friends of the New Providence Memorial Library. Everyone is welcome.
