Hatch Movie Night

It started on a bitter cold January evening in 2005 … a little idea with big dreams of bright lights, lots of stars and movie lovers of all ages … HMN was born!

In association with Movie Licensing USA, Hatch PTO began a program to bring marvelous movies to Hatch suited for the whole family! Featuring fantastic new releases and favorite classic such as: Shrek, The Princess Bride, Finding Nemo, etc. While most of the showings were on Friday evenings, a few were shown as matinees right after school. The matinees were tremedously successful!

And so, HMN is now a matinee-only event! All movies will start promptly at 3:15 pm. Refreshments will be on sale 10 to 15 minutes before show time. Unless otherwise noted, all movies will be in the auditorium. Questions and comments should be directed to Huan Tran at: huan@hatchpto.org.

Searching For Bobby Fischer (1993). The Academy Award–nominated screenwriter of "Awakenings" and "Jack The Bear" joins with the producer of "Sister Act", "The Addams Family" and "Little Man Tate" for this acclaimed movie for the whole family. More than just "that chess movie", Searching For Bobby Fischer is warm, earnest and well–acted film, based on a true story, of a seven–year–old boy whose excellence at chess forces him and his family to examine how they can maintain his childhood while developing his extraordinary gift.
