What: Films on the Green is a free out-door French film festival that brings classic and contemporary French cinema to New Yorkers in different parks around the city. Events are free and open to the public. Not to worry there are English subtitles! This year's theme celebrates love " à la française, " the seduction, the passion, and the jealousy.
