I had thought that the movies they they showed on Sparks St. were always on Sparks. I was mistaken. It's really "Centretown Movies Outdoor Film Festival". They have a
schedule posted. It's "free" to go and see movies... they just pass around a donation box to try and collect money to pay for the costs. It looks like this year we'll be
sitting on the grass which actually might be a lot better compared to being on Sparks where people are walking by all the time and getting in the way.
We just have to figure out what movies we are going to watch now... maybe a
horror one, I don't know. Laura didn't think that was scary idea, but I did.

I can certainly recommend an outdoor movie evening! I went to see mambo italiano and hanging out watching a movie in the middle of downtown proved to be quite the bit of fun and made for a relaxing evening. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteYeah, Val and I were looking into going to see some of these. Looks like they got some good ones scheduled for this summer.
ReplyDeleteLiz or Jim, how many people show up for these movies (how many people were there when you went)? Is it crammed?
ReplyDeleteI heard that that Spellbound movie is pretty good. I think that Rigby went to see it at the Bytowne. I'm going to check it out for sure. Plus, did you see that Cirque For Life movie in the list? I'm in heaven.
I'm a bad judge of how big crowds are, but the area certainly wasn't packed - and we showed up just as it was supposed to start. We perched on a blanket so could sit anywhere and not bother people, so maybe if you've got a chair and would like a better seat a wee bit earlier would be best.
