A Christmas Story offered as Free Holiday Movie at Strand on December 19

Rockland, Maine - The Strand Theatre, 345 Main St., will present A Christmas Story (1983) as a free family movie for the holiday season on Saturday, December 19 at 3pm. The free event is made possible through the generosity of Cates Real Estate.

A Christmas Story, a nostalgic view of Christmastime in Indiana during the 1940s, stars Peter Billingsley as Ralphie, a nine-year-old who has only one thing on his Christmas list: a Red Ryder Carbine-Action 200-Shot Air Rifle.

With his parents unwilling to buy him the gun because he might “shoot his eye out,” Ralphie decides to mount a full-scale, hint-dropping, Santa-begging campaign. He and his friends  endure a slew of calamities from snowsuit paralysis to the dreaded tongue-on-a-frozen-flagpole gambit.

The movie is rated PG. Running time is 94 minutes. Free admission. For information about all Strand Theatre films, live music and performance events, and HD broadcasts, visit www.rocklandstrand.com, call 207-594-0070, or email info@rocklandstrand.com.
