Local GM movie ‘The Last Truck’ to get Centerville screening

In an e-mail, Reichert said she and Bognar and possibly others will be available to answer questions and talk about the documentary at the screening.

The screening will be at the 111 W. Spring Valley Road branch. Admission is free.

The plant’s closure put about 1,000 people out of work, although the plant had employed thousands more in recent years. Workers there assembled mid-size SUVs, like the Chevrolet TrailBlazer.

The Last Truck debuted locally last summer before airing on HBO on Labor Day 2009. In October, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences named the work one of eight contenders for the “documentary short subject” Oscar at the 82nd Academy Awards.
