Come and enjoy a feature length film on our BIG screen!
Tonight's feature is: "42 the Jackie Robinson story" starring Chadwick Boseman, Harrison Ford, Nicole Beharie and Christopher Meloni. This film is based on a true story and is rated PG-13.
"In 1946, Branch Rickey, owner of the Brooklyn Dodgers, took a stand against Major League Baseball's infamous color line when he signed Jackie Robinson to the team. The deal put both men in the crosshairs of the public, the press and even other players. Facing unabashed racism from every side, Robinson was forced to demonstrate tremendous courage and let his talent on the field win over fans and his teammates."
