FILM
Summer is finally upon us, but hasn't gotten to the point of providing us with the traditional stifling heat -- yet. That makes it the perfect time of year to enjoy outdoors as much as possible, especially the nice cool evenings. Westfield Century City mall has another incentive to get you outside: free movies. Head down to the Level 2 dining terrace for a free movie screening at 8 PM, or any other Wednesday through August 26th. Titles vary and tonight's movie happens to be Footlose. Check out the full listing of movies to be screened in upcoming weeks.
