This summer, join us for Movies with a View Presented by Pluto TV to celebrate our 24th season of Brooklyn’s beloved free outdoor film series on Thursdays, July 11 – August 28 at Pier 1 Harbor View Lawn.
On Thursday, August 22 enjoy The American President (PG-13, 1995, 114 minutes). A widowed U.S. President running for reelection and an environmental lobbyist fall in love. It’s all above-board, but “politics is perception,” and sparks fly anyway. Nominated for Academy Award Best Music and Original Music or Comedy Score. Directed by Rob Reiner, starring Michael Douglas, Annette Benning, Martin Sheen, and Michael J. Fox.
This year’s lineup of free screenings is presented and sponsored by Pluto TV, the leading free streaming television service, who will be giving away exciting movie night essentials during the pre-screening festivities. Pluto TV is honored to team up with Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy’s Movies With a View to bring movie fans a summer of fun!
