FAMILY FILM FEST brings family-friendly animated films to The Ross every Saturday in July, beginning at 11:00 a.m. All tickets $5. October, 1957. Nine-year-old Hogarth Hughes lives in Rockwell, Maine, a seemingly idyllic town. Hearing stories of a UFO that crashed into the sea, Hogarth, always on the lookout for mutant aliens, finds a huge, metal-eating robot with an insatiable curiosity and equally insatiable appetite. But the extraterrestrial’s presence unleashes a wave of paranoia that threatens to engulf Rockwell unless Hogarth and his 50-foot friend can stop it. Acclaimed animation director and writer Brad Bird brings his creative talents to the big screen in this unique tale of two heroes. (d. Brad Bird | 1 hour, 26 minutes | Rated PG for fantasy action violence, language, some thematic material and smoking)
