After making it through the winter, your first instinct when celebrating summer might be to punch the closest thing you can find that represents the season and yell “Welcome to hot!” Or maybe you’d like to make a stirring speech about it, in the key of Pullman. In which case you’ll be happy to know that Red Hook Flicks, at least according to their 2014 schedule, shares your sentiment. Why else would they be showing Independence Day?
Yes, we’ve got even more summer movies, because this is just the kind of city we live in. Red Hook Flicks’ free outdoor movies at the Valentino Pier (Coffey Street and Ferris Street) kick off on Tuesday, July 8 at 8:30pm with Dazed and Confused, and then run another eight weeks. Like last year, there’s a combination of family-friendly and more serious fare, with something for everyone. Especially Independence Day, which is about as summer a movie as there is. The full schedule:
July 8: Dazed and Confused
July 15: Hustle and Flow
July 22: The Incredibles
July 29: Fried Green Tomatoes
August 5: Paris Is Burning
August 12: Madagascar
August 19: Independence Day
