Check out what's on tap for Film on the Rocks

Ok, now that my beloved Cinderella Twin Drive-In is gone forever I'm going to be taking myself and my love of seeing movies outdoors to Film on the Rocks.

The series celebrates its 10th Anniversary with ten films over ten weeks beginning June 16.

Each week this summer, a classic film and band will appear at Red Rocks Amphitheatre hosted by hilarious comedians, which will provide a thoroughly entertaining evening for all. The Denver Film Society encourages everyone to come out and enjoy the natural Red Rocks Amphitheatre. Tickets are only $10 and parking is free.

The season starts with the Coen Brother's hilarious bowling-crime-caper, The Big Lebowski, and a very special performance by Denver's own folk/indie sensation The Wheel, will get things going on Tuesday, June 16 at 7 p.m.
