FIELD OF DREAMS

 

 

                      MOVIES IN CHURCHILL PARK

               THURSDAY, JUNE 12th
               Dusk (about 9pm)

               Churchill Park
               1825 N Damen

 

Bring a picnic basket and a blanket and join us for the first of three BCO sponosored outdoor screenings in Churchill Park this summer!

Synopsis from the Internet Movie Database: "Iowa farmer Ray Kinsella [KEVIN COSTNER] hears a voice in his corn field tell him, "If you build it, he will come." He interprets this message as an instruction to build a baseball field on his farm, upon which appear the ghosts of Shoeless Joe Jackson and the other seven Chicago White Sox players banned from the game for throwing the 1919 World Series. When the voices continue, Ray seeks out a reclusive author to help him understand the meaning of the messages and the purpose for his field." <more about the movie here>
