The Carlyle Community Council, the City of Alexandria, and the Alexandria Economic Development Partnership will present the film, "RBG" Aug. 29 under the stars in John Carlyle Square Park.
At the age of 85, U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg (RBG) has developed a lengthy legal legacy while becoming an unexpected pop culture icon. But the unique personal journey of her rise to the nation's highest court has been largely unknown, even to some of her biggest fans – until now. RBG explores Ginsburg's life and career. From Betsy West and Julie Cohen, and co-produced by Storyville Films and CNN Films.
Join the community in seeing this acclaimed film in one of the few open-to-the-public non-theater showings of one of this summer’s most popular movies. Grab friends, a picnic – from one of Carlyle’s eateries, and bring your chairs or blankets to partake in this amazing evening.
