I emailed the city and received a nice reply from Tom Champion, who said that by today's standards the movie would be rated PG-13. I wondered how other people feel about the city's choice of movies? I feel that outdoor movies should be PG at the most. The movies aren't shown until dusk, so the smallest kids will probably not be there, but I'm sure many elementary-aged kids well under 13 will be attending. I'd also personally love to see more older movies that are harder to see on the big screen, like "Singing in the Rain," but at least one old movie is being shown this summer! Paula Hi,
