On Wednesday, Feb. 17 Bryn Mawr Film Institute will host a screening of the movie "Doctor Zhivago," which won five Academy Awards and still ranks as one of the highest-grossing films of all time.

The 1965 film is set in early 20th-century Russia and tells a love story between a Russian poet and a political activist's wife, with plenty of other characters and plots intertwined within the movie.

Before settling in for the three-hour movie, there will also be a "White Russian Tea Party" at 6 p.m. for guests. One White Russian cocktail will be included in the movie admission price.

For those who want to extend the spirit of Valentine's Day past Feb. 14, watching one of the greatest love stories on the big screen isn't a bad idea.
