AARP Hearing Center
AARP Movies for Grownups (MFG) advocates for the 50-plus audience by fighting ageism in the entertainment industry and encouraging films that resonate with older viewers. Through its nationwide screening program, Movies for Grownups offers attendees opportunities to connect and create a community of film fans both in person and online. This includes screenings of classic movies and exclusive showings of films not yet in theaters, with all titles having a particular appeal to grownup audiences. All MFG screenings are free and take place both virtually and in theaters for communities across the country.
The Movies for Grownups program launched in 2012 with a free screening of Hope Springs, starring Meryl Streep, in just 20 cities across the US. It has since grown, reaching hundreds of cities and thousands of movie fans each year. In 2020, Movies for Grownups began a virtual screening program, offering a new way for the 50-plus film lover’s community to watch and connect with others from the comfort of home.
