From announcement:

(This Friday at 7pm) join us in Pleasants Park for the final movie of our 24th season of our Oregon Hill Community Movies for a showing of Robert Redford’s The Natural.
The Natural is a 1984 American sports drama film starring Robert Redford as Roy Hobbs, a gifted, but troubled, baseball player. Directed by Barry Levinson and based on the 1952 novel by Bernard Malamud, the movie is known for its mythic, romanticized portrayal of baseball and its dramatic, feel-good ending.
As always, free refreshments served: grilled hotdogs, sides, desserts, and beverages.

Editor’s note: Actor Robert Redford, a true ‘movie star’, passed away earlier this month. He will be remembered for a magnificent body of work, but he will also be fondly remembered for 1) his environmentalism, 2) his support for young and emerging movie talent.
