7TH ANNUAL FILMS ON THE GREEN FESTIVAL: July 25 – 8:30 pm
Films on the Green, a free outdoor French film festival, will be presenting the action-comedy Le Magnifique, starring Jean-Paul Belmondo as a mystery author, tonight in Transmitter Park in Greenpoint.
Films on the Green is a free outdoor French film festival produced annually in New York City parks by the Cultural Services of the French Embassy in the United States, FACE and NYC Parks. Since its inception in 2008, the festival has expanded the reach of French film and brought classic and contemporary movies to local communities.
This year’s theme is “Masculin Masculin.” A play on the 1966 Godard film title Masculin Feminin, “Masculin Masculin” presents a gamut of colorful male figures in French film—lovers, heroes, gangsters, and rebels. From love to war, and from neuroses to humor, this year’s festival offers the most memorable of the masculine in classic love stories, thrilling film noir, and deadpan French comedies.
8:30 pm @ Transmitter Park
Greenpoint Ave and West Street, Greenpoint
