Join us Saturday and Sunday, February 27 and 28, 2016 at 2 p.m., for the final presentation of the Homestead Centennial Film Festival at Homestead National Monument of America's Education Center. In this Centennial year the festival featured popular movies filmed at National Park Service sites across America. February 27 and 28 the festival will showcase Shane, a wonderful tale filmed in Grand Teton National Park. This movie chronicles the journey of a weary gunfighter attempting to settle down with a homestead family, but must first deal with rancher conflicts before doing so. "We felt it appropriate to end the Centennial Film Festival with a homestead themed movie. We hope you have had as much fun with the films this year as we have," stated Superintendent Mark Engler.
