NYPA's free movies shown Fridays in April

Posted

MASSENA – The New York Power Authority will feature four contemporary films which will inspire both laughter and tears during April’s Friday Matinees at the admission-free Hawkins Point Visitors Center and Boat Launch.

The matinees are part of a year-movie festival at NYPA’s admission-free Hawkins Point Visitors Center that features a changing selection of movies every Friday at 1:30 p.m. in the visitors center’s auditorium. The movies and the popcorn are both free.

• April 1: ‘Tootsie’ (1982). An unemployed actor with a reputation for being difficult disguises himself as a woman to get a role in a soap opera.

• April 8: ‘On Golden Pond’ (1981). The film explores the often turbulent relationship a woman shared with her father while growing up and the difficulties faced by a couple in the twilight years of a long marriage.

• April 15: ‘What About Bob?’ (1991). A successful psychiatrist loses his mind after one of his most dependent patients, a highly manipulative obsessive-compulsive, tracks him down during his family vacation.

• The visitors center will be closed on April 22 in honor of Good Friday.

• April 29: ‘Arthur’ (1981). Arthur is a happy drunk who is heir to a vast fortune which he will only inherit if he marries a woman he does not love.
