SPEEDWAY, Ind. — "Elf" was the featured film at Speedway's "Movie on Main" event Friday.
Families gathered and bundled up to watch Will Ferrell and company.
Town leaders say it sets the tone for the season.
"It's a good way to roll into the Christmas season. We've put up our holiday lights here on Main Street already and it's a great movie for all ages," said Cheryl McElroy, Speedway's communication director.
The hope is to do these events once a month. They've already got plans for December, showing "National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation."
And if you're concerned about the cold, don't worry. We're told there are discussions underway about adding heaters to the plaza.
