| On the night of September 24th, with the evening air taking on a fall chill and clear skies over the sycamore boughs, the Cultural Affairs Committee launched its second outdoor Movie Night devoted to African American filmmaking on the Main Green. More than sixty people attended a showing of five short films from four neighborhood artists, three of whom live here at the Village Green; the presentation was followed by a short discussion, moderated by the famed director Charles Burnett (“Killer of Sheep,” 1978; “To Sleep With Anger,” 1990). |  |

A new column from former HIGHLIGHTS editor Lucy Fried
| It was a wonderful honor to be invited to write a recurring column for HIGHIGHTS, and I can’t think of any topic more import-ant to launch with than safety. I want to think that our Village is immune to crime, but of course it cannot be and never has been. In fact, back in the very early 2000’s, Don and I were burglarized, and I still remember the feeling of violation when I found my drawers and closets ransacked and precious items stolen. |  |
