The City of Wheeling will host a Free Movie Night at 9:30 p.m., Friday, August 20 at Warwood’s Garden Park, 1501 Warwood Avenue for the screening of Little Loopers, starring Boyd Kestner.
A kind of Bad News Bears meets golf, Little Loopers is about Hutch, a washed-up pro golfer who spends his time drinking and playing golf for money. He has anger problems that put him in front of a judge who orders him to do 1,000 hours of community service helping the “Little Loopers” learn to play golf. He doesn’t like the challenge at first but learns something about himself and the team as they work together. There are a number of values the kids must follow, which Hutch discovers also work for him. Despite many wrong ideas and miscommunication, the kids and Hutch come together with confidence and hard work to overcome the biggest challenge for all of them. This movie is about change, helping others, turning your life around and confidence, but most of all it is about the love of the game.
In addition to Kestner, the cast includes Natalie Imbruglia and Rob Morrow.
