Get ready to watch some of your favorite flicks while comfortably lounging on a rooftop beneath the stars this June.Rooftop Film Club just unveiled their lineup of outdoor screenings for June, including iconic classics from the 70s, 80s and 90s, plus some more hits you might have missed the first time around on the big screen. The films will be shown high atop the roof of the 89-year-old Montalbán Theater near Hollywood and Vine.
The June roster will take you back with plenty of 90s jams like Clueless, Titanic, Trainspotting, and yes, even Spice World. Meanwhile 80s fans will be stoked to catch favorites like Fast Times at Ridgemont High, The Goonies, Top Gun—and nobody will put baby in the corner when Dirty Dancing hits the screen. You can also catch some classics like The Godfather, Harold and Maude and Psycho, and more recent releases like Deadpool and Straight Outta Compton.
And instead of having to fight for your turf on a lawn or struggle to hear over chatty neighbors, at Rooftop Film Club, you'll get to kick it in cabana seats with wireless headphones. You can also grab bites from Farmer's Belly, which offers local and organic street food selections in addition to the usual popcorn and candy offerings. Plus there will be beer, wine and themed cocktails for sale.
Find the lineup below. All screenings start at 8 p.m.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
