“Dog Day Afternoon” will screen at Screen on the Green on July 27

The recently reinstated 2009 edition of Screen on the Green, now a joint production of HBO, Comcast, and the Trust for the National Mall, has announced the programming for the remainder of the summer’s dates. When it was revealed that the series had been rescued from extinction earlier this summer, organizers only announced the first title on the schedule, a July 20 screening of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Titles for the remaining three dates — SotG was shortened to only four weeks this year from the normal five due to the last minute planning — were released this morning.

As HBO indicated was a possibility to the Post last month, we’re sharing a couple of titles with the New York City version: the aforementioned Close Encounters as well as Dog Day Afternoon, which screens on July 27. From that pair of 1970s classics, the programming jumps back two decades for On the Waterfront on August 3 and Rebel Without a Cause on August 10.
