‘Fruitvale Station’ Opens July 26 in St. Louis! Enter to Win Passes to the Advance Screening!

Enter to win a pass for two!

Winner of both the Grand Jury Prize for dramatic feature and the Audience Award for U.S. dramatic film at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival, director Ryan Coogler’s FRUITVALE STATION follows the true story of Oscar Grant (Michael B. Jordan), a 22-year-old Bay Area resident who wakes up on the morning of December 31, 2008 and feels something in the air. Not sure what it is, he takes it as a sign to get a head start on his resolutions. His resolve takes a tragic turn, however, when BART officers shoot him in cold blood at the Fruitvale subway stop on New Year’s Day. Oscar’s life and tragic death would shake the Bay Area – and the entire nation – to its very core.

Cast: Michael B. Jordan, Octavia Spencer , Melonie Diaz, Ariana Neal
Director: Ryan Coogler

Fruitvale Station opens Friday, July 26!
