The Chicago Outdoor Film Festival 2008

Okay, kids. The lineup for the Chicago Outdoor Film Festival is out (thank you, Mayor Daley's Office of Special Events for being prompt so I can plan my summer). Here is the lineup for the Tuesday evening outdoor party in Grant Park:

All About Eve
July 15 @ 8:57pm

The Odd Couple
July 22 @ 8:51pm

The Blues Brothers
July 29 @ 8:44pm

The Day the Earth Stood Still
August 5 @ 8:35pm

Touch of Evil
August 12 @ 8:25pm

An Affair to Remember
August 19 @ 8:15pm

Grease
August 26 @ 8:03pm

Scott and I are for sure planning on going to see: All About Eve, The Blues Brothers (this will be insane...the crowds will be ginormous!! Yay awesome Chicago movie!), and an Affair to Remember; A Touch of Evil is also a very high possibility. The others are also up for negotiation, except maybe for Grease. Not the biggest Grease fan, but we'll see. Let us know if you are planning on going so we can sit together. (You out of towners are welcome to come in for a visit to see it for yourself!)

Nothing says summer like having a picnic and watching a movie in Grant Park with the skyscrapers keeping watch and the stars popping out above you. This year, we're investing in some chairs so I'll stop falling asleep on the lawn. :) I can't wait!

"It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses."

Blue Brothers, The Day the Earth Stood Still, and A Touch of Evil are the most likely for us. We might be in for The Odd Couple, too
