Lunch & A Movie: Oscar Series~ War Horse


Enjoy a delicious lunch of soup, salad and bread sticks from Olive Garden and the Oscar nominated film War Horse.  Set against a sweeping canvas of rural England
and Europe during the First World War, “War Horse” begins with the remarkable friendship between a horse named Joey and a young man called Albert, who tames
and trains him. When they are forcefully parted, the film follows the extraordinary journey of the horse as he moves through the war, changing and inspiring the lives of those he meets—British cavalry, German soldiers, and a
French farmer and his granddaughter—before the story reaches its emotional climax in the heart of No Man’s Land.


The First World War is experienced through the journey of this horse—an odyssey of joy and sorrow, passionate friendship and high adventure. To register, or for more information, call 847.470.5223 weekdays from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
