How do I find Polaris and North in the night sky?
I am in an astronomy class and need to find Polaris for a project. I know you have to first locate the Big dipper, and the pointer stars but I can’t find these either. Everytime I go outsite the only thing I can identify is Orion. If this helps, can someone explain where North/Polaris would be located?

Looking for Mr. Goodbar [VHS] $9.95 Based on the mid-’70s novel by Judith Rossner (which itself was based on a true story), this film was supposed to be the one that established Diane Keaton’s credibility as a “serious” actress–and yet she won the Oscar for the other film she did the same year, Annie Hall.
