The concept is simple but effective: open-air (well, technically enclosed and heated for spring), skyline views, wireless headphones and a rotating schedule of films.<\/p>\n<p>April\u2019s theme, \u201cDon\u2019t judge a book by its movie,\u201d brings a literary twist to the programming, with adaptations like Pride &amp; Prejudice, The Great Gatsby (2013) and Breakfast at Tiffany\u2019s anchoring the schedule. But if you\u2019re less into period drama and more into emotional chaos or blockbuster escapism, there\u2019s plenty of that too\u2014The Notebook, Crazy Rich Asians and The Hunger Games are also in the lineup.<\/p>\n<p>The cinema sits on the Skylawn rooftop of the Embassy Suites on West 37th Street, with views that stretch across midtown, including a peek at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/newyork\/attractions\/empire-state-building-manhattan-ny\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Empire State Building<\/a> if you time it right. It\u2019s fully enclosed and heated for spring, so there\u2019s no gambling with the weather and the whole thing is designed to feel more like a low-key lounge than a typical theater.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s also a full bar for anyone 21 and over, plus a social vibe that\u2019s a little looser than your average movie screening\u2014talking, texting and out-loud reactions are all part of the experience, within reason. Tickets typically run between $28 and $35 and seating is first-come, first-served, so arrive early if you\u2019re aiming for prime skyline views.<\/p>\n<p>Because after all, if you were going to watch The Notebook for the hundredth time anyway, you might as well do it under the Manhattan skyline.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If your spring calendar is still looking a little\u2026 indoorsy so far, here\u2019s a quick fix: take your&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":180166,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[13687,158,9,13688,56,63,65,64],"class_list":{"0":"post-180165","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-city","8":"tag-categories-movies","9":"tag-movies","10":"tag-new-york","11":"tag-news-movies","12":"tag-ny","13":"tag-nyc","14":"tag-nyc-headlines","15":"tag-nyc-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180165","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=180165"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/180165\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/180166"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=180165"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=180165"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=180165"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
