I enjoyed it so much. Films in VVP enables me to see movies and films that I don't normaly or always get to see. Thank you Films in VVP.

Quote:Don?t want to over sell it, but this is a great ?little movie?. Saw it at the Angelika in SoHo and everyone came out of the theater with a smile on their face. This was nominated for best foreign film in 2011, and if you didn?t get the opportunity to see it, join us tonight?at worst, I?ll give you a cup of free popcorn.

See you there.

Are you a Jet or a Shark?? Join us this Wednesday July 24th for our next FREE outdoor film in VVP!!

WEST SIDE STORY!

In case you're not familiar..go to www.filmsinvanvorst.com to watch a trailer...It's a favorite for many. Feel free to sing along to classic songs like "Tonite", "Maria" "I like to be in America!" --it's guaranteed to be a good nite.

Bring a chair, Bring a friend. We'll have the movie and popcorn.

Brought to you by the Van Vorst Park Association & Friends of Van Vorst Park witht the generous support of Silverman-Building Neighborhoods, NJ Beer Co, Aire Salon, Jersey City Medical Center, Liberty Park Cafe & Diner, Me Casa Restaurant, The Merchant Bar & Restaurant, Thirty Acres, Two Boots Pizzeria, Yoga Shunya and The City of Jersey City.

See you in the Park!!!

Its a pleasant night out... get there early for good spot!

Can't wait to catch a film this year, West Side Story will probably be a fun one.

I'm a tad biased...but everyone seems to enjoy themselves! People bring chairs, blankets, some bring dinner, others snacks, some bring their babies in carriages, others their pets. Free popcorn too!! The movies are on a large screen with 4 speakers surrounding the space where we show them. Even on a hot night there's usually a breeze from our big beautiful trees in the park. There are mosquitos, ambulances roaring by, loud cars occasionally, but if you look up there are stars in the sky and a great mix of your neighbors sitting next to you. Come a little early and share a snack with someone and you could make some new friends!!
Our full schedule is on www.filmsinvanvorst.com or you can send us your email address at vvpanews@gmail.com and I will put you on our email list.

Any reviews on how this is? It sounds awesome!

Thanks so much!!

And really we can only do it because of help from so many local businesses! Silverman-Building Neighborhoods, NJ Beer Co, Aire Salon, Jersey City Medical Center, Liberty Park Diner, The Merchant, Me Casa, Thirty Acres, Two Boots Pizza & Yoga Shunya!!

We are really lucky....

I went to Argo a couple weeks ago and I was really impressed by the set up. Keep up the great work.

So wonderful to see so many people at our film last night!! Great night for a movie too--

Thanks to our volunteers including 2 young women from POLAND!! It's wonderful for us to get a helping hand before the movie! And JEFF from Friends of Van Vorst Park--great job on popcorn duty!!

See you in the Park!!

We are going for it!! The movie is on!! Join us @830.

Fingers crossed, as I'm planning on coming out tonight. I think we'll be OK weather-wise.

Keeping our fingers crossed that the weather holds for tonite's Films in Van Vorst's showing of "THE IMPOSSIBLE"

In the meantime...check out a trailer for it at www.filmsinvanvorst.com.. Dramatic, touching, scary and heart warming all at the same time.

We will post here, on Facebook/VanVorstParkAssociation and on twitter @vvpajc if the weather gods do not cooperate!!

THANKS!!

It was a great night again for Films in Van Vorst. Thanks to Parkman for making great popcorn, our volunteers who helped set up and take down our equipment, and to Pamela Pearl who talked with us about the casting process on a major motion picture--we could have talked for hours with her!! She gave us some great scoop on Ben Affleck..."Ben" to her. It's official. He's a nice guy!

Our next film in in 2 weeks July 10th.
"THE IMPOSSIBLE"
A regular family - Maria (Naomi Watts), Henry (Ewan McGregor) and their three kids - travel to Thailand to spend Christmas. They get an upgrade to a villa on the coastline. After settling in and exchanging gifts, they go to the pool, like so many other tourists. A perfect paradise vacation until a distant noise becomes a roar. There is no time to escape from the tsunami; Maria and her eldest are swept one way, Henry and the youngest another. Who will survive, and what will become of them?

Great film--and a true story...

See you in the Park!

We are feeling confident that the weather will hold out for us for tonite's showing of ARGO. If that changes we will post here asap.

Before the movie we will be joined by Pamela Pearl, Associate Casting Director for the film-she's got great stories and inside scoop!! Not to be missed!!
