Welcome to the 31st season of summer movies in Bryant Park! Bring a blanket and a friend, and grab your spot on the lawn to watch a feature film on the big screen under the stars. Enjoy the show!
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003), starring Kate Hudson and directed by Donald Petrie
“Our love fern! You let it die!”
An advice columnist who would prefer to write about politics, Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson) tries pushing the boundaries of what she can write about in her new piece about how to get a man to leave you in 10 days. Her editor, Lana (Bebe Neuwirth), loves it, and Andie goes off to find a man she can use for the experiment. Enter executive Ben Berry (Matthew McConaughey), who is so confident in his romantic prowess that he thinks he can make any woman fall in love with him in 10 days. When Andie and Ben meet, both their plans backfire.

Movie Nights are almost always rain or shine, but:
- If it rains, the movie will go on and the lawn will be closed. Seating will be available in the gravel path surrounding the lawn, and throughout the park. Bring your umbrella!
- If there are thunderstorms, the movie will be delayed or cancelled.
- There are no rain dates for Movie Nights.
- Because there are no rain dates, we do not make a lawn or cancellation call until the day of the movie, and often later in the day. Conditions can quickly change; if weather is deemed dangerous, the park may close.
- Please follow our social media @bryantparknyc on Instagram and Twitter for Movie Nights lawn and weather updates!
Hester Street Fair brings the city’s best vendors to the Fountain Terrace each week, 4pm-8:30pm, to make your Movie Nights picnic the most delicious it can be .
Starting at 5pm, stop by our bar tent at the back of the lawn for summer-ready drinks, featuring special offerings from Stout NYC.
