The movies at Bryant Park on Summer Mondays begin at dusk. I usually walk through there about six or seven, although this was like 5:30. I’ve never seen more than maybe a hundred folks or so at this time, but on Monday almost the entire lawn was occupied. The film? How Green Was My Valley by John Ford. I’m not that familiar with it, but am a devotee to his Westerns. John Ford can still bring out the crowds. This Academy Award winning Film, according to Wikipedia, “chronicles a socio-economic way of life passing and the family unit disintegrating.” Maybe film technique was not the only relevant attraction her. Of course, it was free.
