Last night I attended the final Summer Screen event at McCarren Park Pool for Wes Anderson's Rushmore. Surprisingly, we were allowed to bring alcohol BUT it could not be in glass. My huge 6.99 bottle of Trader Joe's wine had to be poured into cups provided by the door people and maneuvered to a decent spot, picking up free gifts from sponsors along the way. The King Left played an enjoyable set before the movie started a little after 8PM.
It was a really nice and bittersweet finale to the events at McCarren [Yo La Tengo is playing the final final show at the Pool on Sunday--but it's not free.] It will truly be missed on summer days to come but I am confident that we will have something new and fun to look forward to.
