Aptly named, all movies begin shortly after sundown, and this year's offerings run the gamut from romantic comedies to thrillers.&nbsp;"Sundown Cinema is a way for everyone to celebrate their parks, so it was important for us to bring an even wider range of films than we have in previous years," Drew Becher, CEO of the SF Parks Alliance, said in a statement. "There are movies in everyone's neighborhood, but these will be worth traveling for, too."&nbsp;The series kicks off on June 8 when Alamo Square Park hosts a screening of 1978's "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." Sundown Cinema then heads to the Presidio Civil War Parade on June 30 where attendees can either watch the beach scene from "Top Gun: Maverick" or recreate it, given the close proximity to East Beach at Crissy Field.&nbsp;Other highlights include the opportunity to give your best rendition of ABBA's biggest hits with a "Mamma Mia" sing-along at Dolores Park on Aug. 18, as well as a screening of Marvel's Oscar-nominated "Black Panther: Wakanda Forever" at India Basin Shoreline Park on Sept. 8.&nbsp;For the first time ever, the Ferry Building will host a Sundown Cinema event. Moviegoers can "bend and snap" their way to the iconic structure for a screening of "Legally Blonde" on Sept. 29.&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition to the feature flicks, each Sundown Cinema event will include themed pre-show entertainment and local food trucks.&nbsp;While Sundown Cinema is free and open to the public, attendees can get reserved seating by becoming an SF Parks Alliance member. Current members and those interested can secure their spots here.&nbsp;All attendees are encouraged to RSVP for a chance at winning reserved seats and other prizes.&nbsp;jsalazar@sfexaminer.com@jamesbewritingFor its 15th anniversary, the festival will have 96 restaurants slinging over 700 menu items over the course of …The San Francisco author's new book is an ode to beauty and wonderNo library card will be required to listen to the artists that make up the Bay Area's local music scene this fallFor its 15th anniversary, the festival will have 96 restaurants slinging over 700 menu items over the course of …The San Francisco author's new book is an ode to beauty and wonderNo library card will be required to listen to the artists that make up the Bay Area's local music scene this fall
