Movie Night: A Man Called Otto- INSIDE
July 21, 2023 @ 8:30 pm - 10:30 pm
Due to a rainy forecast, we will now be showing our first of the Bixby summer movies, A Man Called Otto, inside, upstairs in the Bixby Hall.
Based on the # 1 New York Times bestseller “A Man Called Ove,” A Man Called Otto tells the story of Otto Anderson (Tom Hanks), a grump who no longer sees purpose in his life following the loss of his wife. Otto is ready to end it all, but his plans are interrupted when a lively young family moves in next door, and he meets his match in quick-witted Marisol. She challenges him to see life differently, leading to an unlikely friendship that turns his world around. A heartwarming and funny story about love, loss, and life, A Man Called Otto shows that family can sometimes be found in the most unexpected places.
•Two-time Academy Award winner Tom Hanks stars with his son playing a younger version of Otto.
•Based on a New York Times bestseller and Oscar-nominated 2015 Swedish movie A Man Called Ove.
•Adapted by two-time Oscar nominee David Magee (Life of Pi) and directed by Marc Forster (Finding Neverland).
•A feel-good, timely story about loss and love and the impact one life can have on others.
