Ready for A Close-up Young Harris College partnered with local movie theater Fieldstone Cinemas Six in Young Harris to host a special red carpet screening party on the eve of the film’s nationwide release. On Thursday, Sept. 20, nearly 500 YHC students, faculty and staff “dressed to the nines” to walk the red carpet, pose for photos provided by the YHC Photography Club and enjoy a fun baseballthemed soiree prior to a private screening of the film. The event included a free raffle for Trouble with the Curve swag, and Fieldstone Resort President Ken Merritt and YHC President Cathy Cox welcomed the crowd before showtime. Complimentary tickets to the event were provided by Warner Bros. Pictures, and Eastwood’s Malpaso Productions company is credited with making the historic occasion a reality and putting YHC on the Hollywood map.
YHC students, faculty and staff packed the theater for the private screening.
