Show FLICKS IN THE NIGHT Every year hundreds and hundreds or at least quite a few movies come through Vernal which are viewed and critiqued by just as many students if not more. Each are attracted for different reasons such as the stars, theme, or on good recommendation. One faithful movie buff said he goes because there is nothing better to do. In any case movies in Vernal have been an overall success which in turn causes rivalries concerning favorites and each year the distinguished judges of Uintah High get together to choose their favorites.
