Saturday night at Culver City Hall Courtyard, the audience is waiting for the 70th Anniversary to be started. There are many parents with their children. At the right side of the screen the Fire Department is offering fresh prepared, salted popcorn for free. A long line of children,
teenagers and parents are waiting to get their portion in little red plastic helmets. The popcorn’s smell is in the air, mixed with the sound of the tune coming out of the speakers. It’s windy, a little fresh tonight. Parents are having blankets with them, covering the little children’s bodies. The tune, well known by the parents, as they’re joining it. “Over the rainbow” from the left, the right side. Like a big cloud enfolding happy people, sharing magical moments, the magic of this night . - Joy. - Clapping hands when the scenes are showing familiar pictures, the speakers bringing well known words. Then – the final scene. When young Judy Garland as Dorothy is speaking her last words “There’s no place like home” people are clapping, yelling. What a touching, connecting atmosphere.
