Marty, Doc go ‘Back to the Future’ @ 7th Street Theatre Classic Film
Jan 25 @ 7:00 pm

Director Zemeckis takes us ‘Back to the Future’ at 7th Street Theatre Jan. 25-26
A box-office smash from the wild imagination of director Robert Zemeckis, “Back to the Future” will be shown at 7:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Jan. 25-26, at Grays Harbor’s historic 7th Street Theatre, in downtown Hoquiam. The 1985 film was also co-written by Zemeckis, Best Director Oscar winner for “Forrest Gump” and director of “Romancing the Stone,” “Who Framed Roger Rabbit,” “Cast Away,” “Polar Express” and a pair of “Future” sequels, among his credits. The movie offers breakthrough big screen roles to an unlikely pair of TV stars, 24year-old Michael J. Fox of “Family Ties” and Christopher Lloyd, already a double Emmy winner for “Taxi” and 23 years Fox’s senior. As Marty McFly and Doc Brown, they take us through a fun and crazy time travel adventure that includes the Flux Capacitor (“still, uh, fluxing”) and helped make the DeLorean car an iconic piece of pop culture. Doors open at 7 p.m. for the 7:30 p.m. showings. The theatre is at 313 7th Street in downtown Hoquiam. Tickets are $6, available at the door or in advance at Harbor Drug and Crown Drug in Hoquiam, City Drug in Aberdeen, and online at www.7thstreettheatre.com.
