CLARKSVILLE, TN – Following a brief hiatus due to Gov. Bill Lee’s executive orders limiting gatherings, movies are returning to the corner of Franklin and First in downtown Clarksville.

Patrons can get “Back to the Movies” at the Roxy Regional Theatre in March with a Friday night lineup featuring a little something for everyone:

Dr. Seuss’ THE CAT IN THE HAT

Friday, March 5 @ 7:00pm

Sponsored by Waterdogs SCUBA & Safety, this hilarious live-action film adaptation of Dr. Seuss’ beloved tale follows two bored children who have their lives turned upside down when a talking cat comes to visit them. Mike Myers stars in the title role as the mischievous feline with the red-and-white striped magical stovepipe hat, who arrives at the home of young Sally and Conrad while their mother is out. The family’s pet fish objects to his presence, but that doesn’t stop the trouble-making Cat in the Hat from trying to have fun — no matter how much destruction is left in his wake!  (Rated PG)

Admission to this screening is free with a $5 suggested donation to help with licensing fees.

Lee Daniels’ THE BUTLER

Friday, March 12 @ 7:00pm

One quiet voice can ignite a revolution. Forest Whitaker leads an all-star cast as a White House butler who serves eight American presidents over three decades and finds his personal life deeply affected by the sweeping social changes — from the civil rights movement to Vietnam and beyond — he witnesses from his prestigious job.  (Rated PG-13)

Admission is $5 per person.

Dr. Seuss’ THE LORAX

Friday, March 19 @ 7:00pm

Sponsored by Waterdogs SCUBA & Safety, this visually spectacular computer-animated film adaptation of Dr. Seuss’s fable delivers a timeless message about the importance of protecting the environment. In the walled city of Thneedville, where everything is artificial and even the air is a commodity, twelve-year-old Ted (Zac Efron) will do anything to find a real live Truffula Tree in order to win the heart of Audrey (Taylor Swift), the girl of his dreams. As he embarks on his journey, Ted discovers the incredible story of the Lorax (Danny DeVito), a grumpy but charming creature who speaks for the trees, and the Once-ler (Ed Helms), who let greed overtake his respect for nature.  (Rated PG)

Admission to this screening is FREE with a $5 suggested donation to help with licensing fees.

SHUTTER ISLAND

Friday, March 26 @ 7:00pm

In Academy Award-winning director Martin Scorsese’s spine-chilling thriller, U.S. Marshal Teddy Daniels (Leonardo DiCaprio) investigates the disappearance of a murderer who escaped from a mental asylum located on an island currently in the path of a major hurricane. As the storm worsens and the puzzling, improbable clues multiply, Teddy soon suspects the doctors may be hiding facts from him and begins to doubt everything – his memory, his partner, even his own sanity. (Rated R)

Admission is $5 per person.

A number of safety measures are in place, including extra cleaning and limiting each screening to 50 patrons to allow for proper social distancing in the auditorium.  Facial coverings to mask the nose and mouth are also required for staff and patrons, and sanitizing stations are located throughout the building.  Popcorn, assorted candy, and drinks are available as concessions in sealed packaging.
