FAMILY FLICKS FILM SERIES

UCLA Film & Television Archive and the Hammer Museum have teamed up for a matinee screening series of new and classic family-friendly films from around the world.

In this classic baseball comedy, a little girl’s prayers on behalf of her beloved Pittsburgh Pirates are answered when an angel offers their cantankerous manager a deal: refrain from swearing and fighting in return for celestial assistance. Can the manager control his temper long enough for the Pirates to win the pennant? (1951, dir. Clarence Brown, 16mm, b&w, 99 min.) 

Recommended for ages 7+. All ages are welcome. Feel free to take a break with infants and toddlers in the theater lobby.
