June 29, 2015: Free Outdoor Screening of "Superman: II"
The Park and Recreation Board of Newtown, PA will host a special outdoor screening of the 1981 blockbuster, "Superman: II" as part of their "Newtown Movies in the Park" annual outdoor film series on Wednesday, July 29th at dusk.
Directed by Richard Lester, the film stars Golden Globe-nominee Christopher Reeve ("The Remains of the Day", "Deathtrap") in his second starring role as the Man of Steel alongside Academy Award-winner Gene Hackman ("The Birdcage", "Unforgiven"), Margot Kidder ("Amityville Horror") as Lois Lane, Ned Beatty ("Deliverance") as Otis, Sarah Douglas ("Conan The Destroyer") as Ursa, Jack O'Halloran ("Dragnet") as Non, and Academy Award-nominees Valerie Perrine ("ER") and Terence Stamp ("The Adventures of Priscilla: Queen of the Desert").
This sequel to the box office smash, "Superman: The Movie" continues the great adventures of the Man of Steel as Superman enters the battle of his life when he fights to save the planet Earth from three intergalactic arch-criminals whose powers are as fantastic as his own. Spectacular action, unlimited surprises abound, as Superman again faces a cosmic confrontation between good and evil. Amidst it all is the will-they-or-won't-they romance of the ever-flirtatious Lois 'n Clark.
The screening will take place at Linton Memorial Park, located at the corner of Lincoln and Penn streets and admission is free. Attendees are encouraged to bring blankets and lawn chairs for seating.
