6The Cotton Club9 Director Frances Ford Coppola has fashioned a glittering Jazz Age musical drama - sort of a Finian’s Rainbow meets The Godfather - complete with tap shoes and Tommy guns. The Cotton Club gets its title from the Harlem nightclub of the 20s and 30s which was run by white gangsters who hired black performers to entertain rich white society people. This is a dazzling film with first-rate acting and perfectly captured ambience with Gregory Hines, Richard Gere, Lonette McKee, Diane Lane and Fred Gwynne. The Cotton Club will be shown Saturday and Sunday at 7:30 p.m. at the Gay Street Theatre. Truck And Tractor Pull A four wheel drive Truck and Tractor Pull will be held on Saturday, August 24, at the carnival grounds at the Amissville Fire Department on Route 211,12 miles west of Warrenton. Weigh-in for the trucks and tractors will be at noon, and the pull will start at 1 p.m. Pulls will be held for modified trucks and tractors, street trucks and farm tractors. There will also be three-wheel, all terrain drags and big wheel races for two age groups of children. The pull is sanctioned by the Old Dominion Tractor Pull. Tickets will be sold at the gate for $7, and children under 12 will be admitted at no charge. In case of rain, the pull will be held on August 25.
