See E. Jefferson on the silver screen...on E. Jefferson

Jefferson East Business Association will showcase its cinematic side with outdoor movie screenings throughout June. On June 9, the group will show Goonies and on June 16, Dreamgirls -- both of which feature scenes that were filmed in the district.

Films begin at 9 p.m. Concessions are available, but bring your own chair.

The movie screenings are intended to bring people down to the Jefferson East business district prior to the 2007 Jazzin' on Jefferson, which is set for June 22-23.
