Brad Pitt stars as Sonny Hayes, a past-his-prime race car driver, who returns to the world of F1® at the request of an old racing friend. Driving alongside the team’s hotshot rookie, Sonny soon learns that the road to redemption is not something you can travel alone. The all-star cast also includes Damson Idris, Kerry Condon, Sarah Niles, Callie Cooke, Liz Kingsman, and Javier Bardem.

All movies are shown at the Mickey Cafagna Community Center. Doors open at 12:30 p.m.; films begin at 1 p.m. This program is for older adults aged 50 and better.

September is National Preparedness Month – a great time to take small steps to make a big difference in being prepared for disasters. Get started by downloading the Alert San Diego app and registering for emergency alerts (also available at AlertSanDiego.org).

Emergency notifications to landlines are automatic, but you need to register your cell phone to receive reverse 911 calls on that device in the event of an emergency. This allows you to receive notifications specific to your registered location regardless of where you are when the emergency happens.
