1. Avatar Among Screenings Under the Stars July 1-31

Picture 8In most cities, the outdoor summer movie series generally consist of a Blockbuster or two hidden among classics or obscure films. This is not the case at the Screenings Under the Stars at Penn’s Landing. The month of July starts off with a bang with the #1 movie of all time, Avatar, and continues with The Blind Side, The Secret Life of Bees and last year’s summer blockbuster Star Trek. In a beautiful setting right on the Delaware River, the experience is surreal as the large screen projects incredible movies, and the darkness of the theater is emulated by the darkness of the night sky. The screenings start every Thursday night at 8:30pm; make sure to check the website’s calendar for the schedule.

Silver Lake Sets a New Standard for LA Cool

This is definitely not the Hollywood Hills that you’re used to seeing. Known as “The Williamsburg of the West,” Silver Lake has been home to many famous musicians, artists and hipster elite a la Katy Perry, Beck and Tom Waits, much like its BrooklynPicture 18 counterpart. As upscale as it is quaint, Silver Lake is the place to go for off-the-beaten-path boutique vintage shops and amazing multi-ethnic cuisine. With a thriving indie music scene, and many up and coming artists, Silver Lake puts the hip into hipster.

Silver Lake is also home to some of California’s most impressive modern homes (like Kiefer Sutherland’s bachelor pad) and sprawling picturesque landscapes and city views that only the Hills and the Silver Lake Reservoir can provide. Silver Lake is an awesome locale for someone who is eager to experience the “real” LA, the LA most people didn’t even know existed. Hey, if it’s good enough for Agent Jack Bauer, then it’s good enough for everyone.
