showing of Animal House or Good Will Hunting.  Harry Potter and the
Sorcerer's Stone is free and is part of the Canton Palace Theatre's
monthly First Friday Family Movie series.

 

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone tells the story of a boy who is
rescued from the outrageous neglect of his aunt and uncle, a young boy
with a great destiny proves his worth while attending Hogwarts School of
Witchcraft and Wizardry. This 2001 film stars Daniel Radcliffe as "Harry
Potter" and Emma Watson as "Hermione Granger".  The film is rated PG.

 

National Lampoon's: Animal House is the 1978 cult classic film that
depicts a groups of college students unable to gain acceptance at the
snootier fraternities they pledge, the Deltas, a motley crew of misfits
and sociopaths bent on disrupting the well-starched status quo, engage
in various illegalities that land them in hot water with both the stern
college dean and the neighboring jock fraternity. Their exploits
eventually cause them to be placed on "double-secret probation," until
finally, they are kicked out of school and, as the dean reminds them,
newly eligible for the Vietnam draft. This film is rated R and stars the
late John Belushi.

 

Good Will Hunting is the Academy Award winning film set in working-class
South Boston, a psychological drama about a 20-year-old lad who works as
a janitor at MIT and spends most of his time with his coarse friends at
the neighborhood bar. Blessed with a certain genius, Will, who has never
attended college, can summon obscure historical references based on his
exceptional photographic memory. He can also solve difficult
mathematical problems with an ease that makes MIT's richer more educated
students envious of him. When big shot professor Lambeau presents a math
challenge to his students, with a fine reward to match, Will anonymously
solves the formula on a blackboard placed in the school's corridor.
Lambeau begins a search for the mysterious student, and upon finding
Will takes him under his wing. It's the only way for Will to get parole
after a number of run-ins with the law. Lambeau makes two conditions:
that Will meet with him once a week for math session and that he begin
therapy. The film is rated R and stars Matt Damon and Robin Williams,
among others.
