Van Cortlandt Park Alliance - FREE Movie Night! The Birds - Thursday, August 4

 


This iconic Hitchcock classic embodies the Nature’s Revenge theme best!

Tippi Hedren is Melanie Daniels in her career-defining role. (Hollywood royalty, Tippi is also Melanie Griffith’s mom and Dakota Johnson’s grandma!). 

It’s a scary one, so parents be aware that this may not be appropriate for the littlest ones. 

Rated PG-13

 

Pack a picnic and head over to the Parade Ground (past the Nature Center).

Movie starts at the last light of day – that’s ~ 8:30 PM on August 4.

Arrive at 7:30 PM for movie-themed fun: 

  • Groove to 60s tunes with DJ Neil Nice. 
  • Make your very own FRIENDLY bird creation!
  • See why birds are actually cool (not scary!).
  • BYOB (Bring Your Own Blanket).
  • It’s hot out there – set up an umbrella and buy a soft drink at the VCPA merch table. 
  • Pack some bug spray to fight off ants, mosquitoes, and other crawlies. 

 

The best part? It’s all FREE! 

Thanks to Council Member Eric Dinowitz, NYC Parks, Van Cortlandt Park Alliance, and optimum. 

 

Our friends at Lloyd’s Carrot Cake will be open late. Grab a slice for dessert on your way over. 

 

Join us for the whole series!
