Outdoor Movies LA Event Series Eat|See|Hear Presents EDWARD SCISSORHANDS Tonight

Outdoor movies Los Angeles event series Eat|See|Hear will be in Santa Monica tonight, June 20, to showcase Tim Burton's haunting yet whimsical modern fairy tale, Edward Scissorhands. This event will be held at Santa Monica High School's Memorial Greek Amphitheatre, located at 601 Pico Blvd. Showtime is 8:30 p.m.

This 1990 film stars Johnny Depp who plays Edward, a gentle, naïve young man, the creation of an inventor whose sudden death left him unfinished, with sharp metal shears for hands. Edward lived alone in darkness, in a castle high on top of a hill, until a kind Avon lady discovers him and takes him home. At first, everyone welcomes Edward into the community, but soon things begin to take a change for the worse. The all-star supporting cast includes Winona Ryder, Dianne Wiest, Anthony Michael Hall, Kathy Baker, Vincent Price and Alan Arkin.

The film will be projected onto Eat|See|Hear's three-story high inflatable movie screen with a 52-foot wide image-the largest of its kind west of the Mississippi-offering an unrivaled outdoor movie experience with digital HD projection and state of the art line-array audio.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. "We're really excited about this event and we advise bringing seat cushions, pillows or blankets since this venue is an amphitheater with concrete seating," suggests Sharon Sperber, co-owner of Eat|See|Hear.

At 7:30 p.m., the indie alternative band, OYLS, will take the stage. Fans of Alt-J and Disclosure will enjoy the band's seamless blends of rock, soul and Motown with a rhythmic backbone. The band is comprised of two LA natives, David Kirshenbaum and Michael Lipp, who are both ready to make their mark on the 21st century electronic landscape.

Plenty of food trucks will be on hand, including Brasil Kiss, Coolhaus, Crepe de Ville, Let's Roll It, LuckDish Curry, Mexican Kitchen, No Toros Mexican Kitchen, Peaches Smokehouse BBQ, Postcards CAS, Seoul Sausage, The Chili Philospher and The Schmuck Truck. Food vendors will be open for business starting at 5:30 p.m.

Parking is available at the Civic Center Parking Structure, for a flat fee of $5. This parking structure is located at 333 Civic Center Drive, which is across the street from Santa Monica High School. Movie goers are asked to enter the amphitheater through the walkway on 4th Street, between the track and the DoubleTree Hotel.
