Featured Events

In 2018, Films on the Green will explore the profound relationship between French culture and gastronomy: an integral part of France’s social fabric.

Featuring 12 classic and contemporary films, the selection will explore various aspects of this multifaceted theme, from cuisine as an art (Le Grand Restaurant by Jacques Besnard, Haute Cuisine by Christian Vincent) and wine making as a traditional family savoir-faire (You Will Be My Son by Gilles LeGrand), to the meal as a social event (a family Christmas gathering in La Bûche by Danièle Thompson).

All are Free French Films in NYC Parks
