Marquette, MI – Peter White Public Library invites the public to a free screening of the modern classic film “Hoosiers” on Thursday, April 16 at 6:30 pm in the library’s Community Room.
A coach with a checkered past, played by Gene Hackman, and a local drunk, played by Oscar nominee Dennis Hopper, work together to train a small town high school basketball team to become a top contender for the championship. The film is loosely based on the true story of the Milan High School team and the 1954 Indiana state championship.
Co-starring Barbara Hershey, “Hoosiers” was nominated for multiple Academy and Golden Globe award, including best original score for Jerry Goldsmith. The film was released in 1986, is rated PG and runs for 114 minutes. Light refreshments will be served.
