OUTDOOR CINEMA AT SOCRATES PARK


Outdoor Cinema is the 11th annual festival of international film, music, dance and food, celebrating the cultural diversity of Queens.

Come to Socrates Sculpture Park and sample regional cuisine from neighborhood restaurants, picnic on the grass as the sun sets over the city, enjoy performances by local musicians and dancers and, as the sky darkens, see exceptional international films on a large-format screen - all set against the spectacular backdrop of the Manhattan skyline.

JULY 29:
LOU REED'S BERLIN (UNITED STATES)
2007, 85 mins. Directed by Julian Schnabel. With Lou Reed.

Lou Reed's ambitious song cycle about a couple's drug -and violence-filled downward spiral was turned into a live concert experience designed by Julian Schnabel. The event was documented by the great cinematographer Ellen Kuras (director of The Betrayal). (Rated PG-13 for language)
