Last Summer at Coney Island: FREE Screening next Wednesday!

Friday, June 1st, 2012 by

We’re at it again at Otto’s Shrunken Head, this time with a summer favorite: Last Summer at Coney Island!  This seasonal indie by JL Aronson follows the rise and fall of the iconic Coney Island, while seeing how the community as a whole was impacted.  Before heading over to Coney Island for fun in the sun, why not hang out with us and enjoy this FREE screening courtesy of IndiePix Films – along with drink specials courtesy of Otto’s Shrunken Head!

About the film:

Coney Island is known throughout the world as the birthplace of the hot dog, the roller coaster and – broadly speaking – popular culture. But Coney Island is not what it used to be and the area has lingered for years as a specter of its former magnificence.

Now, after years of false starts, change is coming to Coney Island. Come Hell or high water, the city of New York is determined to revitalize the once glorious, world capitol of amusements. Meanwhile, a private developer with dubious motives has been purchasing every square foot of land he can get his hands on. The neighborhood’s residents, along with the amusement community and the millions who cherish Coney Island’s legacy are left wondering what will happen next. Seaside salvation or Brooklyn boondoggle? History will decide but this film is the first draft. Last Summer at Coney Island juxtaposes images of the past and present with interviews and observed scenes featuring many of the key players in this transformation.
