Places in the Heart at Main Library

Posted By on Wed, Mar 30, 2011 at 10:07 AM

The “Family Portraits” film series continues on Saturday (April 2), but the previously scheduled Leolo has been replaced with Places in the Heart. Set in the South during the Great Depression, this film tells the story of a mother (Sally Field) struggling to keep her home and family together. She takes her chances with a cotton farm, putting her trust in two unknown men, an African-American wanderer named Moze (Danny Glover) and a blind war veteran named Will (John Gavin Malkovich). Winner of two Academy Awards (Best Actress for Field and Best Original Screenplay for writer-director Robert Benton), this dramatization is a fine example of what family means. For more information, visit www.lightfactory.org. Held in Francis Auditorium. Free. 2 p.m. Main Library, 310 N. Tryon St. 704-336-6217.
