Family Movie Night: Matilda (1996)

Matilda (1996). Directed by Danny DeVito, 1 hr. 38 min., comedy/family/fantasy, PG

Enjoy this classic film about a girl gifted with a keen intellect and psychic powers. Matilda gets even with her callous family and frees her kindly schoolteacher from the tyrannical grip of a sadistic headmistress. Come at 6 pm for premovie activities including magical art making and sweet treats that are much too good for children.
