MOVIES IN THE PARK on Friday, June 25th

The City of Allentown’s “Movies in the Parks” series seen on a giant inflatable outdoor screen continues its third season on Friday, June 25 when “The Blind Side” takes to the screen at Roosevelt Park on S Filmore and Saucon Streets in Allentown.


Saundra Bullock stars in this remarkable true story of Michael Oher, a homeless African-American youngster from a broken home. Michael was taken in by a wealthy white family who helped him fulfill his potential as a person and as an athlete. He worked hard on the field and in the classroom and became an All-American in college and was picked in the first round of the 2009 NFL Draft, changing his life and the lives of the loving family who were there to watch him succeed.


The public is invited to bring a blanket or lawn chairs to enjoy the movie. The show begins at dusk.
