Movies for special kids

Marcus Theatres announced showings of “Finding Nemo” on Saturday, “Hotel Transylvania” on Oct. 6 and “Wreck-It Ralph” on Nov. 3 at select theatre locations, including Duluth Cinema, 300 Harbor Drive, as part of its “Reel Movies for Real Needs” film series.

“Reel Movies for Real Needs” is designed for families of special-needs children with autism or other challenges who cannot always attend regularly featured movies with their families.

All movies in the film series begin at 10:30 a.m. Regular matinee adult and child pricing applies.

All movies are shown in 2D.

The “Reel Movies for Real Needs” program creates a welcoming and accessible environment for special needs children by offering age-appropriate films with a lower sound volume and brighter lighting for families who may not feel comfortable attending regularly scheduled shows.
