Movies At the Riverfront Community Center Please note that we receive many recommendations on what type of movies we should and should not show at the center, and as a result have concluded that no two seniors are alike… Some folks want to see only comedies or romantic films. Others want the latest thrillers with lots of action. Because we offer a variety of films, there will be times when a film might not meet an individual’s personal preference. Going forward, we will always show you the rating of the film, highlighting its content so that there will be a clear warning that the film may contain sexual content, violence, rough language etc.. Then the choice is yours! June 2018 The Sharing Tree 11
