Have a magical Saturday at a magical price as The Grand presents on Saturday, March 23rd at 2 pm on the Coastal Eye Care screen the first of J.K. Rowland’s beloved series of movies for the whole family- “Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone!” Upon his 11th birthday, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe), who lives in misery with an aunt and uncle that don’t want him, learns from a giant named Hagrid (Robbie Coltrane) that he is the orphaned son of powerful wizards. Harry is offered a place at prestigious Hogwarts, a boarding school for wizards that exists in a realm of magic and fantasy outside the dreary existence of normal humans or “Muggles.” At Hogwarts, Harry quickly makes new friends (Emma Watson, Rupert Grint) and begins piecing together the mystery of his parents’ deaths, which appear not to have been accidental after all. The film features alternate-version scenes for every mention of the titular rock. Richard Harris, Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, John Cleese, and Fiona Shaw co-star. (2001. UK. 2hrs, 32min. Directed by Chris Columbus. PG) Tickets for this General Admission presentation are $1 only.
