Program Description

Event Details

For the month of June we will be watching movies about drifters.  These vagabonds and ne'er-do-wells are the center of some great classic films.

On this night, we will be watching Robert Aldrich's 1973 film "Emperor of the North" starring Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, and Keith Carradine.  It is rated PG - and that's a hard 70s PG.

In 1933, during the Depression, Shack the brutal conductor of the number 19 train has a personal vendetta against the best train hopping hobo tramp in the Northwest, A No. 1.
