It's that time of the year!! An incredible and unique event takes place in Los Angeles every Saturday night during the warm weather of summer.....Movies at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery!!!
It's one of my favorite things to do in LA and this year they are kicking off the season with a tribute to Elizabeth Taylor/"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof."
If you have never been before you are in for a real treat! A classic film is projected onto a mausoleum wall as you sit with a crowd of hundreds of Angelinos under the stars surrounded by headstones (don't worry the graves themselves are off in the distance). People bring pillows, blankets, food, booze etc. Plus there is a DJ that sets up before the screening and jams away before and after the film.
In large part the experience is what you make of it. And it is an EXPERIENCE, and not just a movie. If you wait in line for one of these movies it is not only a commitment, but an event in and of itself.
It is probably some of the best money you will spend during the summer! Don't miss it!
