The Prattville Library is hosting a screening of the classic inspirational sports film “Remember the Titans” this fall.
The movie stars Academy Award winner Denzel Washington, future “Creed” star Wood Harris, “Sons of Anarchy” actor Ryan Hurst, and Donald Faison of “Scrubs” fame. among the cast of young stars in what was for many an early breakout role, including the late Harden Panettiere in a supporting part.
Loosely inspired by a true story, the Disney film focuses on a high school football team in the early 1970s in Virginia, in which the student athletes, coaches and parents must overcome racial tensions to become one of the top teams in their state.
While the screening event at the library is intended for adults, teens may join in watching the PG-rated film if they are accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Taking place at the main Prattville Library off of Doster Street, the screening will be held in the library’s special room called The Nook, which doubles as a portable classroom.The library is also located right next to Pratt Park, which has a playground, splash pad, pond and pool.
Hosts of film screenings like this may choose to use poster printing to create low-cost promotional materials in the community.
“Remember the Titans” is screening on Monday, November 9 at 5:30 pm at The Nook at the Prattville Library at 254 Doster Street in Prattville.
