Syfy Presents BROOKLYN BRIDGE PARK'S MOVIES WITH A VIEW

The Maltese FalconMaltese Falcon Poster 550px
Directed by John Huston
1941, Not Rated, 101 minutes
Hard-drinking, swaggering P.I. Sam Spade gets entangled in a wide web of plotting to steal a foot-high, jewel-encrusted statuette worth a fortune. Dames, gumshoes and nefarious schemers abound in this film noir classic, based on Dashiell Hammet's novel of the same name. Featuring Humphrey Bogart, Mary Astor, Gladys George and Peter Lorre.

Short film: Under The Rollercoaster by Lila Place
To thousands, the Thunderbolt Roller Coaster was a Coney Island icon, but for Mae Timpano it was home. This enchanting film examines the true-life experience of one woman and her unique relationship with Coney Island living under this famed coaster.

The Conservancy's most popular event returns for its tenth anniversary year! Movies With A View is one of the city's premiere outdoor film series with an eclectic line-up of films and breathtaking views of the NYC waterfront. The films are chosen by an all-volunteer Film Committee and each feature is preceded by a short film. DJs from Brooklyn Radio kick off the evening, spinning tunes as the sun sets, and RICE sells delicious dinners onsite. Bike valet provided by Transportation Alternatives.

Sorry, no pets and no alcohol allowed in the park.

Check out the stars with Orion telescopes generously donated by Syfy! The Amateur Astronomers Association of New York will be at the movies to help you locate stars and planets in the night sky.
