Gleaner Insurance Presents "Polar Express" at the Paramount December 3, 2011

Christmas comes early this year when area residents can hop on board the Polar Express as it passes through Classic Cinemas Paramount Theatre. Join Gleaner Insurance as they present a FREE holiday showing of the famed bedtime story, “Polar Express,” rated G, on Saturday, December 3, beginning at 10 a.m. In addition to the free movie, Gleaner will be giving away lots of fun prizes to celebrate the holiday season. The Paramount Theatre is located at 213 N. Schuyler Ave in downtown Kankakee.

Based on the children’s book by Chris Van Allsburg, “Polar Express” tells the story of a boy who maintains his belief in Santa Claus despite the teasing of his more cynical friends. The boy's conviction is rewarded one Christmas Eve when a steam train, guided by the conductor Tom Hanks, appears in front of his house and carries him and his disbelieving friends off to the North Pole.
