Details
Richard Harris and Sean Connery star in the story of a coal miners' rebellion in 1876 Pennsylvania. In the coal mines of Pennsylvania, embittered miners have started a campaign of sabotage to retaliate against the owners' cruelty. Undercover cop McParlan joins the gang to expose them, but ends up in sympathy with grizzled chief Kehoe.
One Friday each month, the Kirby Center showcases a classic movie on the big screen. Each showing includes an on-screen introduction by Flashback Cinema host and Northeastern Pennsylvania native John Hersker, providing historical background on the films.
The series features two showings of each film, first at 1 p.m. and again at 7 p.m. on the same Friday. Tickets for matinee films are only $3, while evening films are just $5.
