On the weekend that Americans are celebrating the country’s history, the Bobby Stone Film Festival will show a film chronicling one of the most defining moments of the 1960s.
“Woodstock,” the film account of the legendary 1969 music festival, will be shown Saturday, July 6, at 7 p.m. in the Tivoli Theatre, 709 Broad St. Tickets are $12 adults, $10 children and senior adults.
An estimated 400,000 folks packed into the fields of a dairy farm in New York to hear 32 acts perform over four days at the outdoor music festival. Woodstock is considered a pivotal moment in music history, and Rolling Stone listed it as No. 19 on its list of “50 Moments That Changed the History of Rock and Roll.”
The film series continues Sunday, July 7, with two screenings of “The Goonies” – the first at 2 p.m., the second at 6 p.m.
“The Goonies” follows a band of Oregon kids who attempt to save their homes from foreclosure and, in doing so, discover an old treasure map. It takes them on an adventure to unearth the lost fortune of One-Eyed Willy, a legendary 17th-century pirate. During their adventure, they are chased by a family of criminals who also want the treasure.
