[TN-Talk] Movie Night With the NFB of SC!

[Steve Cook]

Hi All, 

 

The National Federation of the Blind of SC would like to invite everyone to
movie night on Friday, May 7, 2021, at 8:00 PM eastern! We are showing the
movie "Radio" and it is audio described. So bring your favorite snacks and
drinks and join us! 

 

Radio is a good human-interest story that was inspired by events in 1976 in
Anderson, South Carolina. Cuba Gooding, Jr., who plays the mentally
challenged Radio, does such a good acting job, you will believe he is the
real Radio. His real name is James Robert Kennedy, and he was nicknamed
Radio, because of his radio collection and listening to the radio all the
time. Radio spends his days in this small town pushing or riding a grocery
cart down the street, talking to no one. After some football players harass
Radio, the football coach Harold Jones played by Ed Harris takes Radio under
his wing. Radio begins to help out at football practice and sits on the
bench at games. In time, Radio begins to trust the coach. However, some
people in town think Radio is a distraction to the team, and they want Radio
to go. By this time the coach and the team are all friends to Radio and they
want him to stay. Douglas Young (the-movie-guy)
