The Max Fischer Players invite you to view 'Rushmore' tonight in Tompkins Square Park

Well, it looks as if the weather will finally cooperate for the free films in Tompkins Square Park tonight after consecutive washouts... jinx.

So tonight ... it's "Rushmore," the 1998 comedy from East Village resident Wes Anderson... which follows the travails of Max Fischer (Jason Schwartzman) and his pal Herman Blume (Bill Murray).



Arrive earlier-ish ... There's pre-movie music tonight courtesy of Batala NYC, an all-women's AfroBrazilian Samba Reggae drumming band.

And upcoming:

June 27 — Reservoir Dogs
July 11 — Easy Rider
July 18 — Drive
July 25 — The Big Lebowski
Aug. 1 — Rocky Horror Picture Show
Aug. 8 — Chico + Rita
Aug. 15 — Romeo + Juliet
Aug. 22 — O Brother, Where Art Thou

    Batala NYC is amazing. Also, Friday is Make Music NY's Brass Ascension convergence in the park!
