September Lineup of Cinespia Screenings at Hollywood Forever

The movie-viewing experience that set the stage for now-ubiquitous outdoor film-watching in L.A., Cinespia has announced its September 2018 schedule, with an array of classic films from the ’60s, ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s screening at Hollywood Forever Cemetery.

These screenings are sponsored by Amazon Studios. Check out the complete September schedule below.

Saturday, September 1: Beverly Hills Cop (1984)

See Eddie Murphy at the height of his career in this hilarious 1980s comedy about a smartass Detroit police officer who goes to Beverly Hills to investigate his friend’s murder.

Sunday, September 2: Now and Then (1995)

Christina Ricci, Thora Birch, Gaby Hoffmann, Melanie Griffith, Demi Moore, Rosie O’Donnell and Rita Wilson star in this coming-of-age story about friendship set in both the ’70s and the ’90s.

Saturday, September 8: Scream (1996)

Smart, funny, and scary, this ’90s horror film transformed the genre while inspiring one of the most popular Halloween costumes of the last two decades. Scream stars Drew Barrymore, Neve Campbell, Skeet Ulrich, Courtney Cox, and David Arquette.

Saturday, September 15: Saturday Night Fever (1977)

Saturday Night Fever is far more than just a disco-era time capsule. John Travolta is seriously magnetic in this tale of a 19-year-old Brooklynite who’s going nowhere… except when he’s on the dance floor. See him show off some seriously amazing moves in this moving coming-of-age story.

Saturday, September 22: Yellow Submarine (1968)

Savor the psychedelic trippiness of the Beatles animated delight, followed by a fireworks spectacular.

Doors for all five films open at 6:15 p.m., with each film beginning at 8:00 p.m. Tickets are $16, and can be purchased online here.
