Take a break after work to see a free screening of The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 in Central Park this Wednesday at 8:00! The Central Conservancy Film Fest is sponsoring its 8th annual free film fest and this year has decided to focus the spotlight on NYC icons.

Bring your friends to this free event in the park, and pay homage to your city by watching this remake of the 1974 crime thriller. Denzel Washington and John Travolta face off after armed men hijack a NYC subway train and hold passengers hostage in return for ransom.

The movie will play rain or shine, so grab snacks, seats, and umbrella if necessary. And if you really want to get prime seating, the gates open at 6:30! Enter the Park at 72nd Street, and head to the landscape north of Sheep Meadow, behind Mineral Springs
