Student Union Activities will show Hitch as the summer’s feature show for the movie on the hill. Hitch will be run at 10 p.m. on June 17 at the bottom of the hill by Potter Lake, near the Campanile.

SUA chose the movie from several popular movies showing in theaters this summer.

“We chose Hitch because it seemed like a fun summer flick that would reach a wide audience,” Mary Garavaglia, summer coordinator for SUA, said.

Hitch follows a professional matchmaker, played by Will Smith, whose program is threatened by a female journalist, played by Eva Mendes, who enrolls as a student and plans to publish an exposé on his fraudulent methods, according to movies.yahoo.com.

The movie is one of Columbia Pictures’ newest romantic comedies and is rated PG-13 for language and some strong sexual references.

SUA will provide free Coke and prizes, based on a date night theme to go along with the movie, during the event. Prizes will include a $50 gift certificate to Teller’s, 746, Massachusetts St., a $60 gift certificate to the Lied Center, two $50 travel vouchers to STA Travel and one two-hour cruise around Manhattan, N.Y., Garavaglia said.

Hitch will be the University’s only movie on the hill during the summer semester, according to Garavaglia. She said a few hundred people attended the event during the fall and spring semesters and that she expected the same attendance for the summer show.

The tradition of holding a movie outside on the hill began in August, 1989, with the showing of Fletch near Potter Lake.
