Bryant Park continues its legendary summer movie series with one of the most iconic films of all time. On Monday, August 11 at 8:00 PM, Paramount+ Movie Nights presents The Godfather on the lawn, offering New Yorkers a rare chance to watch this cinematic masterpiece on a giant outdoor screen.
Bring a blanket, gather your friends, and grab a good spot early. The lawn opens at 5:00 PM and fills quickly. As the sun sets behind the Midtown skyline, you’ll settle in for a story of power, loyalty, and betrayal in the world of organized crime.
Directed by Francis Ford Coppola and starring Marlon Brando, Al Pacino, and Diane Keaton, The Godfather remains a cornerstone of American cinema. The story follows the transformation of Michael Corleone from reluctant outsider to ruthless Mafia boss, delivering unforgettable performances, haunting music, and some of the most quoted lines in movie history.
Presented by Paramount+ with support from Vulture, this free screening is part of Bryant Park’s 32nd season of outdoor movies and is open to all.
