See Great Films in Bryant Park This Summer

By Pamela Skillings, About.com

Spread out a picnic on the lawn at Bryant Park and watch classic films in the open air with your fellow New Yorkers. The HBO Bryant Park Summer Film Festival is a New York summer tradition.

All films begin at dusk (usually between 8 pm and 9 pm), but the lawn opens at 5 pm for blankets and picnicking. Get there early and stake out a spot if you want a good view of the screen. Raindates are Tuesday nights. For more information, call (212) 512-5700
