One of Little Italy’s more popular events, sponsored by the Original Little Italy Restaurant Association, the Open Air Film Fest has thrived since 1999. Movies are projected onto the outside wall of Ciao Bella Restaurant in the Da Mimmo Ristorante parking lot from a row home across the street. Folks arrive early to set up lawn chairs, listen to live entertainment, stroll the neighborhood and eat at one of Little Italy's many restaurants.

A bit of history: Instrumental in allowing this event to be created was the late "Mr. John" Pente who died in 2011, at age 100. He allowed a movie projector to be set up in his third floor bedroom window. His nephew, the late Ray Lancelotta who died in 2014, had then purchased the home and generously continued the Film Fest tradition. For 2015, the Lancelotta family continues to supportst the Film Fest.
