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 1st we'll be watching The Spirit of Saint Louis (1957, 138 minutes, PG). This lauded biopic follows legendary pilot Charles Lindbergh (James Stewart) as he makes his historic solo transatlantic flight from New York to Paris. The film details earlier events in Lindbergh's aerial career, including his stints as a stunt pilot and a flight instructor, but it focuses largely on his dangerous journey over the Atlantic Ocean in his signature monoplane, the Spirit of St. Louis. Battling the elements and sleep deprivation, Lindbergh struggles to make a safe landing in France.
