A BikeFest First – Quicksilver! Outside on the lawn of PCA!

On Wednesday, August 17th Pittsburgh Filmmakers presents an outdoor bike-in-movie screening of Quicksilver on the Pittsburgh Center for the Arts lawn, as part of our BikeFest 2011 Celebration.  It tells the tale of Jack Casey (Kevin Bacon), a hot-shot stock market wiz kid who makes a mistake that forces him to trade his life in the fast-lane of stock trading for a life in the bike lane as a messenger. Since 1986 this film has fermented and aged like a fine wine, proving that it’s impossible for Kevin Bacon and bikes to make a bad movie, even if it’s from the eighties. And who wouldn’t want to see it outside, for free, with a bunch of other bikers?

Also, we’re expecting the Franktuary Hot Dog Truck to show up to provide concessions.

• Quicksilver Bike-in-Movie at PCA
• The Pittsburgh Center for the Arts Lawn, Fifth Ave and Shady Ave
• Wed August 17, 8:30pm – 11:00pm

Movie will start when it gets dark. In case of rain, the movie will move under the huge tent.
