Outdoor Movie Night – Motorcycle Diaries* (R)
August 20, 2017 @ 8:00 pm
Travel with two friends Ernesto “Che” Guevara (Gael Garcia Bernal) and Alberto Granada (Rodrigo De la Serna) as they travel from Brazil to Peru on a motorcycle. Along the way they witness the disparities in South America between the rich and the poor. What will they do once they reach Peru? Join us to see how their values and outlook on life changes.
In celebration of our 25th anniversary many of this summer’s featured films will take us back to the year 1992! Whether a classic favorite or a recent blockbuster, Randall’s Island Park is an amazing place to take in a flick. Outdoor movie nights are presented in partnership with the NYC Parks Department.

A special thanks to Fresh Direct for supporting our Outdoor Movie Night.
