Please join us at Ohio University Zanesville in their wonderful auditorium in Elson Hall to watch The Patriot in a theatre setting on a big screen.

The Patriot is about a widowed farmer (Mel Gibson), with a brave but brutal military past, who decides not to join up when the British arrive in South Carolina in 1776. However, when his son (Heath Ledger) enlists and is later captured by the enemy, the former soldier must abandon his new-found pacifist principles in order to rescue his oldest child, and forms a regiment of Carolina patriots, whose guerrilla tactics prove pivotal to the US war effort.

This film is rated R, and is not intended for children.

There will be an intermission.
