Movie Under the Stars Line-Up.

About  a month ago, while we were waiting for it to feel like spring, we were fantasizing about mid-May. Today, which is a chilly and gray day, we’re looking further ahead as we have realized that this spring is not going to give us consistently warm weather. So, let’s think of the summer! What do we think of when we think of New York summers? Free outdoor films! Many have not announced their line-up yet but the Prospect Park Alliance along with Brooklyn Borough President, Eric L. Adams is presenting Summer Movie Under the Stars, which pairs not only films but live musical performances beforehand, and that schedule has just been announced.
