📣 Exciting News! MHREC is holding a movie night on Sunday 4th May 2025 at 18:45 in at MCVS Volunteer Support Centre, Valletta! On the occasion of World Press Freedom Day, join MHREC for a viewing of Newsies.
In this musical, homeless New York City newsboy Jack “Cowboy” Kelly (Christian Bale) befriends two newcomers to his trade, brothers David (David Moscow) and Les Jacobs (Luke Edwards). When publisher Joseph Pulitzer (Robert Duvall) sets new rules that make it harder for the young newspaper salesmen to make a buck, the boys go on strike. Bryan Denton (Bill Pullman), a journalist who’s sympathetic to their plight, gives them some tips in public relations, as the newsboys’ battle grips the city.
At 18:45 on Sunday 4th May we kick of the movie to learn more about the New York City newsboys’ strike of 1899 and how principles discussed then continue to be upheld today! After which, we will briefly discuss these human rights principles.
