Family Flicks Film Series: Benji
- This is a past program
Recommended for ages 6+*
The film that launched one of the most beloved Hollywood franchises of all time, Benji tells the story of a lovable stray dog who uses his wits and courage to track down two kidnapped children. Told from the perspective of Benji (the “Laurence Olivier” of the dog world), this film is a testament to the heroic hearts of our four-legged companions. (1974, dir. Joe Camp, 35mm, color, 86 min.)
*All ages are welcome. Feel free to take a break with infants and toddlers in the theater lobby.
