If your idea of fun is watching movies you have already seen in a pleasant outdoor setting, for free, than you are in luck. New York is full of such options. But with so many choices, how can one possibly decide which to attend? Luckily, you old friends DBTH are here to provide some help.
1. The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy hosts Thursday night movies with a view of Manhattan. Top Picks: The Princess Bride (7/5), The Muppets Take Manhattan (7/19)Never forget, nightlife in New York is more than just drinking and the like. But, people have also been known to drink at these events. Or so we are told. Just don't forget the brown paper bags. And recycle.
2. L Magazine takes over the McCarren Park Pool on Tuesday nights. Top Picks: Dazed and Confused (7/17), Bonnie and Clyde (8/14)
3. Bryant Park, the original, stays with the classics every Monday. Top Picks: The Sting (7/23)
