HBO Bryant Park Summer Film Festival 2007
This series of free, outdoor, classic movie screenings is on Monday nights throughout the summer in Bryant Park, Manhattan and is a hugely popular event on the New York calendar. In the rare event that it rains, films are screened at sunset the following night.
The lawn opens at 5pm for blankets and picnicking and the films begin at dusk (typically 8pm-9pm). The weather, humidity and film all play a role in the number of people that attend, but typically you can expect to join around 10,000 people per screening. Get your seat early!

The ethereal Tribute in Light memorial was designed to help lessen the aching loss felt across the country since 9/11. It is a profound symbol of strength, hope and resiliency. |
New Yankee Stadium is the working title for a new stadium for the New York Yankees, currently under construction. It will open in 2009, replacing the third-oldest stadium in the Major Leagues. |
In popular culture 'The Bronx' has often symbolized violence, decay, and urban ruin. In fact, there are guidebooks that say you must never go to the Bronx! Sheer ignorance, that is all we have to say! Interactive Bronx map |
