Milwaukee, September 11, 2019…Marcus Theatres® will observe National Hispanic Heritage Month, September 15-October 15, by showing a variety of Hispanic-interest and Spanish-language films at eight Marcus Theatres locations in Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and Wisconsin and three Movie Tavern® by Marcus locations in Colorado and Texas. The third annual National Hispanic Heritage Month Film Series features a diverse line-up of 11 films ranging from art house pictures and musical documentaries to blockbusters and comedies that recognize the histories, cultures and contributions of the Latino community in the U.S. and beyond.

“We are proud to bring this series to even more cities in 2019, in particular our new Movie Tavern markets!” said Rolando Rodriguez, chairman, president and CEO of Marcus Theatres. “We invite moviegoers from all walks of life to enjoy a fantastic collection of films that showcase not only what makes the Hispanic culture unique, but also celebrates the universal themes that bind us all together.”
