We’re happy to offer our DC readers the chance to attend a free early screening of The Phantom of the Open. The film stars Oscar winner Mark Rylance and Oscar nominee Sally Hawkins.
SYNOPSIS: THE PHANTOM OF THE OPEN tells the heartwarming true story of Maurice Flitcroft (Mark Rylance), a dreamer and unrelenting optimist. This humble crane operator from Barrow-in-Furness managed to gain entry to The British Open Golf Championship qualifying in 1976, despite never playing a round of golf before. He shot the worst round in Open history and drew the ire of the golfing elite, but became a folk hero in the process and, more importantly, showed his family the importance of pursuing your dreams.
The screening takes place tomorrow, June 7th, at AMC Hoffman Center at 7:00pm. If you’d like to attend, simply register at the link here. Please remember all screenings are first come first served and you’ll need to arrive early to ensure seating.
Enjoy the show!
The Phantom of the Open arrives in DC theaters on June 10th.
