(7.30) [Postponed to Friday due to weather.] Not a bad seat in the house. The natural slope of the lawn, not to mention the terrace and staircase, provide plenty of room for spreading out with uninterrupted views of the screen.
Fox Point City Councilman John Goncalves has been hosting Ward 1 Movie Nights at India Point Park. This Thursday the movie will be “The Secret Life of Pets 2.” (Rated PG. Running time 1 hour and 26 minutes.)
Parents can be reassured that one member of the original cast has been replaced. From the Washington Post review:
Picking up where the original 2016 film left off, this sequel centers on a terrier named Max (Patton Oswalt, doing replacement voice duty after Louis C.K. was dropped from the franchise in the wake of sexual misconduct accusations). Max is still living happily in New York City with his owner, Katie (Ellie Kemper), and his lummox of a best friend Duke (Eric Stonestreet). But then suddenly, in a brief montage, we see everything change: Katie meets a guy, gets married and has a baby, none of which Max likes.
Bring a folding chair, a beach blanket . . . have a picnic.
(Next up: Aladdin, August 7th.)
Free and open to the public, 8pm, Friday, July 30, India Point Park, (directions)
