From Central Park:
The Central Park Conservancy Film Festival is back! This year, the Central Park Conservancy Film Festival will feature cult classic films: movies whose unique ability to excite, inspire, and entertain gathered a “cult” following over time. Presented by Bloomberg since its inception, the festival will take place from August 21-25. All screenings begin at 8:00 pm, rain or shine, and gates open to the public at 6:30 pm. Films will be shown in the landscape north of Sheep Meadow, beside Le Pain Quotidien (mid-Park at 69th Street). Enter the Park at 72nd Street. The festival is free of charge and all movies will be closed captioned. Bring a picnic!
To help choose which film will screen on the festival’s final night, visit ABC7 online to cast your vote for Coming to America or Clerks. Voting will begin in late July.
