About Us We live near Dolores Park, and want to make the most of our beautiful little neighborhood. Dolores Park Movie Night has no affiliations, no causes, no politics and minimal organization. We pay for permits, movie licences, and equipment ourselves and only ask for small donations to cover recurring costs. Dolores Park Movie Night is our small contribution to the local community. Our ranks include a Mad Scientist, a Computer Geek, a couple of Hot Lawyer Babes, our Fearless Leader, and of course our Always Hungry "Will Love You For Food" Mascot. Suggestions? Want to help?

All Hail the Tamale Lady

The Tamale Lady We asked Virginia, our beloved Tamale Lady to come to Dolores Park Movie Night. We believe she answered in the affirmative, but we were so pickled at the time we may have been talking to the juke box. If you see Virginia, tell her that her services are urgently needed at the next Movie Night.

"We need your help!"

How do we pay for all this? We get no funding from any source except from you the Movie Night participant. Donations and popcorn sales have to cover all our costs, which include movie rights, city permits, Valet Bike Parking, porta potties, and equipment. Please help us out so we can keep this event going. And besides, you'd rather be at Movie Night than pay $10.50 for that crappy Brad Pitt movie, right?

2009 Schedule:

	Madagascar (2005) April 16, at 7:30 P.M. Starring: Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer and Sacha Baron Cohen. At New York's Central Park Zoo, a lion, a zebra, a giraffe, and a hippo are best friends and stars of the show. But when one of the animals goes missing from their cage, the other three break free to look for him, only to find themselves reunited ... on a ship en route to Africa. Please observe Family Night Etiquette: respect your neighbors, know who is sitting around you, and be subtle when firing up those funny little mexican cigarettes we know you have...
	Amelie (2001) May 14, at 8:15 P.M. Starring: Audrey Tautou, Mathieu Kassovitz, and some other French dudes. Impish gamine Amélie (Audrey Tautou) lives alone and works in a café. When she finds a trove of toys hidden for 40 years behind a baseboard in her apartment, she's inspired to repatriate the items, an impulse of generosity that sparks more benevolent acts.

Starring: Woody Allen, Diane Keaton, Tony Roberts & Shelley Duvall Romantic adventures of neurotic New York comedian Alvy Singer and his equally neurotic girlfriend Annie Hall.

The "Nature vs Nurture" debate gets put to the test when Randolph and Mortimer Duke (wealthy Blue Bloods who own a successful commodoties trading firm) make a bet as to whether opportunity makes the man. For the experiment, they choose their soon-to-be nephew-in-law, Louis Winthorpe III (Dan Aykroyd), Harvard educated, silver spoon manager of the firm’s Philadelphia office , and street hustler Billy Ray Valentine (Eddie Murphy). Merry New Year!
