Program Description

Event Details

Join us for Monday Night at the Movies. We'll be meeting most Monday evenings from May 6th - July 29th to watch a different film, from old favorites to new releases. Free popcorn! Closed captioning will be provided when available. This series is paid for with funds from the Gert Salzer Gordon grant. 

On Monday, July 22nd we'll be watching Smokey and the Bandit (1977, 96 minutes, PG). Big Enos (Pat McCormick) wants to drink Coors at a truck show, but in 1977 it was illegal to sell Coors east of the Mississippi River without a permit. Truck driver Bo "Bandit" Darville (Burt Reynolds) agrees to pick up the beer in Texas and drive it to Georgia within 28 hours. When Bo picks up hitchhiker Carrie (Sally Field), he attracts the attention of Sheriff Buford T. Justice (Jackie Gleason). Angry that Carrie will not marry his son, Justice embarks on a high-speed chase after Bandit.
