Plano, Texas… Cinemark Holdings, Inc. along with Lionsgate Entertainment and the Cleveland Cavaliers will host an exclusive premiere of the new documentary, More Than A Game on Thursday night, October 1, 2009 at the Cinemark Theatre in Valley View, OH. The event is available only to Cavaliers season ticket holders. The film, which tells the story of Cavaliers star LeBron James and his “Fab Five” high school teammates, opens on October 2nd.
Cavalier season ticket holders were offered the opportunity to see the film first as a special “Thank You” for their support of the team. Half of the Cinemark at Valley View theatre will be utilized for the screening of the film in multiple auditoriums. The Cinemark at Valley View theatre is located at 6001 Canal Road in Valley View, OH.
“This is a unique and interesting story that shows the developmental side of a superstar and the camaraderie of the group as they struggled to achieve greatness,” states Cinemark Vice-President of Marketing and Communications James Meredith. “We’re very proud to host this event. We give special thanks to Lionsgate Entertainment who made this event possible.”
Five talented young basketball players from Akron, Ohio star in this remarkable true-life coming of age story about uncommon friendship in the face of unprecedented fame. Their coach is a hard-driving, charismatic but inexperienced player’s father. Their leader is future NBA superstar LeBron James. This is the “Fab Five’s” story – an improbable seven-year journey that takes them from a decrepit inner-city gym to the doorstep of a national high school championship. Along the way, the close-knit team is repeatedly tested—both on and off the court—as James’ unparalleled talent explodes into worldwide celebrity, threatening to destroy everything they’ve set out to achieve together. More Than A Game combines a series of unforgettable one-on-one interviews with rare news footage, never-before-seen home videos and personal family photographs to bring this heart-warming and wholly American story to life.
Lionsgate Entertainment and Harvey Mason Media in association with Interscope Records present A Harvey Mason Media Production in association with Galley Boy and Spring Hill Productions a film by Kris Belman. More Than A Game is written by Kristopher Belman & Brad Hogan and directed by Kristopher Belman. The film features LeBron James, Sian Cotton, Dru Joyce III, Willie McGee, Romeo Travis and Coach Dru Joyce II.
