After the showing of the movie HUGO, the students gathered in the Sun Theaters’ lobby to call Suzanne Lloyd, who is the granddaughter of Harold Lloyd. They left a message on her voicemail telling how great the movie was. Next month, the students will write letters to Suzanne, as well as to Brian Selznick, who is the author of the book The Invention of Hugo Cabret. Mr. Selznick has offered to adjust his busy schedule in 2017 so he can speak at their graduation.

It was a full house for the showing of the 3-D movie HUGO. Once enough tickets were sold, Sun Theater had to open an additional theater to accommodate all the Heartland Community School viewers. Thanks to the generosity of York’s Sun Theater, their discounted price to view Hugo helped make the movie accessible for everyone.
