By LILY TINOCO | Assistant Editor

Street Food Cinema has invited Angelenos to partake in meals, films and music—from Arcadia to Manhattan Beach, Glendale and Pacific Palisades—since 2012.

Palisadians can join the festivities Saturday evening, June 29, with an outdoor movie screening of “The Goonies” at Will Rogers State Historic Park.

“When a band of local childhood friends calling themselves ‘the Goonies’ stumble upon an old map, secret clues leading to the fabled treasure of notorious pirate One-Eyed Willy set in motion a wild mission to save their homes,” according to a summary on IMDb. “With the criminal Fratelli family hot on their trail, a frantic race against time begins … Will the Goonies prove their mettle?”

The 1985 classic film, directed by Richard Donner, and written by Palisadian Steven Spielberg and Chris Columbus, stars Sean Astin as Mikey, Josh Brolin as Brand and Jeff Cohen as Chunk.

Street Food Cinema presents movies outdoors, street food, audience games, live music and more.
