Great Job, Internet!: Wedding Crashing DVDs are uncorking all over Little Free Libraries

The Minneapolis suburbs are facing an outbreak of Vince Vaughn in their tiny, community-operated book depositories.

Great Job, Internet!: Wedding Crashing DVDs are uncorking all over Little Free Libraries

In a quirky twist, artist Sable Adelaide is spreading joy across Minnesota by filling up Little Free Libraries with 1,200 copies of the romantic comedy Wedding Crashers. Adelaide, who started her collection by purchasing a box of DVDs for under $7, has been donating the films to the community. She began accepting donations in her PO Box, receiving as many as 40 to 70 copies at a time from a single Polish man.

Adelaide describes her project as a "100% queer art installation" and sees it as a way to bring a smile to the community that has faced challenges. She even organized a screening of the film, which was held during a trans joy event with people dressed in wedding gear. Adelaide's mission is to remind community members of simple pleasures, like the smell of meatloaf.
