Jackie Robinson Day

2013 – PG-13 – DCP – 2hr 8min

The Colonial is observing Jackie Robinson Day with a screening of “42.”

About

“This honorable and enlightening film pays due respect to Jackie Robinson — a sports legend and courageous American hero.” – National Newspaper Publishers Association

In 1946, Branch Rickey (Harrison Ford), legendary manager of the Brooklyn Dodgers, defies major league baseball’s notorious color barrier by signing Jackie Robinson (Chadwick Boseman) to the team. The heroic act puts both Rickey and Robinson in the firing line of the public, the press and other players. Facing open racism from all sides, Robinson demonstrates true courage and admirable restraint by not reacting in kind and lets his undeniable talent silence the critics for him.
