Look, we know life isn’t like the movies. Life is much harder. But one easy way to get more movies in your life? Stop by Bryant Park this summer for a free screening. Paramount+ Movie Nights are returning to midtown on Monday evenings, and once again, we’ve been asked to curate a lineup of some of our favorite films to feature. Interested? Perhaps.
Mark your calendars for the following ten Monday evenings from June 10 through August 12:
June 10: Forrest Gump
June 17: The Talented Mr. Ripley
June 24: Boomerang
July 1: Gladiator
July 8: Old School
July 15: Funny Face
July 22: Cinema Paradiso
July 29: How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
August 5: Arrival
August 12: Titanic
Hester Street Fair will return to curate a rotating selection of local food-and-drink vendors on the Fountain Terrace, and beer and wine will be available for purchase at the back of the lawn. At 5 p.m., the lawn will open for picnicking, and the free screenings begin at eight. Are you not entertained?
