Tonight at the Container Park another family friendly movie will be on the main stage at 7pm; You might want to get there a bit early to set up your blanket on the grass in front of the stage, so you can then relax until the movie starts. Tonights movie is the classic baseball movie ‘The Bad News Bears’ starring a very young Tatum O’ Neal and Walter Matrhau. In this movie Walter Matthau’s character Morris Buttermaker is a hard drinking ex minor league player who coaches a Little League team of misfits and outcasts. The teams fortunes look up when a feisty gifted pitcher called Amanda Whurlitzer played by Tatum O’ Neal comes along and joins the team. The movie may be older but its cute family fun and watching a movie on a big screen on a blanket isn’t a bad way to spend the evening. The Container Park if you haven’t visited it before is a selection of shops and restaurants inside shipping containers and is located at 707 Fremont Street a short walk from the El Cortez.
