Schedule for Chicago's Summer 2019 "Movies in the Park"

As we endure this current post-winter non-spring weather malaise, we just want the summer to get to Chicago already so we can go outside without dread. One of the best parts of a Chicago summer is our plentiful parks which offer an uplifting experience under starlit skies with inviting temperatures. Get the blankets ready and go watch a movie in the park. You can tell yourself it’s “exercise” because it’s outside, right?

The Chicago Tribune reported today the following schedule for “Movies in the Park” across Chicago for the Summer 2019 schedule. The offerings feature several big blockbusters from superhero films like ‘Wonder Woman’, ‘Black Panther’ and classic family films like ‘the Wizard of Oz’ which of course is being presented in Oz Park. Also who is going to see ‘the Grinch’ at Jonquil Playlot Park for a ‘Christmas in July vibe?
