UCity Movies in the Parks - "Cooley High" in Millar Park

It's the second film in our 'Coming of Age' series, which travels to a different UCity park each month through October.

Rated PG; 107 minutes; 1975

Dreams of the future and methods of escape from the stifling confines of the ghetto were subjects of endless discussion among the seniors of COOLEY HIGH in the early ‘60s. The transition from teenage mentality to young adulthood is a trying experience for these youngsters and they accomplish it with fast-paced action and humor.  Not to mention a great soundtrack from the folks at Motown.
