The Penn Features Month-Long Line Up of Classic Holiday Films

Four holiday favorites are scheduled to run on weekends through December.

You only have to stroll through Kellogg Park in the Walk of Trees to feel that the holiday season has officially arrived in downtown Plymouth. 

The holidays happen to be an annual tradition at The Penn. 

Since re-opening in 2005, the theater has offered a number of special engagements that most moviegoers today may be too young to have seen on the big screen.

Each Christmas, the Friends select pictures that exemplifies the holidays, but they also do so on Halloween and other holidays.

The film series kicks off Dec. 5. Check out the schedule below.
