New Yorkers Choose "Crooklyn" as the One Film, One New York Movie Night Selection

One Film, One New York is an official program setup by the City that will show one iconic movie for free in parks and theaters across the five boroughs on September 13th. Which iconic New York movie will screen? Well, that was up to us to decide, and we chose Spike Lee's New York classic 'Crooklyn'.

John Leguizamo announces Spike Lee’s semi-autobiographical movie “Crooklyn” as the winner of One Film, One New York! Join us on September 13 for NYC’s biggest movie night.
