CINEMA IN THE PARK

Yesterday, David and I attended the summer long outdoor movie night in High Park (it’s on until August 28th, every Monday). There something very exciting about taking an indoor activity and transplanting it outdoors. The atmosphere was lively, as couples, friends and families reserved their portion of grass and snuggled into blankets and sweaters against the cool night air, preparing for the 90min movie. The conditions were so ideal that it didn’t matter whether the film was good or not. Both David and I had seen 50 First Dates previously in the theatres, but we enjoyed the film much more this time around.

I’m aware that our attitude adjustment towards this movie can be attributed to our new surroundings. It was so charming watching a film beneath a pine tree canopy under the beautiful moonlit sky. I think I would even have a new opinion of “Glitter” under these conditions … MAYBE.

Note: Next week's screening-The Poseidon Adventure (2006 remake)
