Kingsport’s summer movie series continues this Saturday

The Kingsport Public Library’s summer movie series continues this month, offering families a free Saturday afternoon matinee of high adventure, animated fun and a free bag of popcorn.

The free movies will be shown from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. in the first-floor auditorium of the library on June 15 and July 6, so be sure to mark your calendars.

On June 15, the library will be showing a 2023 animated movie about a young girl who makes a wish upon a star and gets more than she bargained for when a trouble-making star comes down from the sky to join her. The film stars the voice-talents of Ariana DeBose, Chris Pine, Alan Tudyk and Angelique Cabral.

Then, on July 6 the library returns to the world of archaeology with the classic 1981 film about an adventuring professor in a race against Nazis to find the Ark of the Covenant. The film stars Harrison Ford, Karen Allen, Paul Freeman and John Rhys-Davies.
