Monthly movie nights return this fall with “The Boys In The Boat” on Friday, September 20. This movie is based on the true story of the University of Washington's 1936 Olympic crew team. The historical sports drama chronicles how the Pacific Northwest team of mostly poor, rural, blue-collar rowers beat first their rivals from Cal Berkeley and then the elitist teams from the Ivy League and East Coast to win a spot in the infamous Berlin Olympics held in Nazi Germany. The movie compresses the true story's timing into the year leading up to the Olympics, as Joe and his teammates practice and prepare for every competition while also dealing with the unrelenting difficulties of being young and poor during the Great Depression.
This movie is rated PG-13 and as always, we encourage parents to check reviews on Common Sense Media to help them determine if this movie is appropriate for their child to view. These reviews are also available from our Family Ministry Director (maggie,portra@beriverstone.org) upon request.
