On Aug. 19, the feature presentation will be “The Nat-
ural” (1984) starring Robert Redford, Glenn Close, and
Robert Duvall. An unknown middle-aged outfielder named
Roy Hobbs with a mysterious past appears out of nowhere
to take a losing 1930s baseball team to the top of the league
in this magical sports fantasy adapted from the novel by

be the greatest baseball movie ever made. The film is rated
PG and runs for 134 minutes.
A screening of “It Happened One Night” (1934) will be
held Aug. 26. This film, starring Clark Gable and Claudette
Colbert, concerns a spoiled heiress who is running away
from her family. She is helped by a man who is actually
a reporter looking for a story. This film was the first of
only three in history to have swept the best actor, actress,
screenplay, director, and picture categories at the Academy
Awards. The movie is not rated and is 105 minutes long.

The Secret of Roan Inish (1994) will be the feature pre-
sentation on Aug. 22. Ten-year-old Fiona is sent to live with
her grandparents in a small fishing village in Donegal, Ire-
land. She soon learns the local legend that an ancestor of
hers married a selkie: a seal that can turn into a human. A
few years earlier, her baby brother washed out to sea in his
cradle and was presumed lost. Yet Fiona starts to believe
he may have survived and is being cared for by someone
on the abandoned isle of Roan Inish. This film stars Jeni
Courtney, Pat Slowey, and Mick Lally and is rated PG.
For more information, call (201) 891-4866.
Motorists must yield to emergency responders
The Wyckoff Police Department reminds motorists to
be alert when emergency personnel are responding to a
call. Firefighters and ambulance corps members answer
emergency summonses in their personal vehicles, which
are equipped with flashing blue lights. Time is critical in
emergencies, and drivers must yield to an approaching blue
light vehicle by pulling over to the curb.
Failure to yield can result in a motor vehicle summons
with fines of $85 and points on an individual’s driver’s
license.
