FRIDAY: It's summer, which always makes people want to go outside and play. We've got you covered with an outdoor return to childhood that won't make you sore the next day. Rosslyn's Gateway Park is showing some of the 1980s' best movies (and we're not talking about "Sophie's Choice" here) every Friday night all summer.

This week, you can watch Keanu Reeves before he was a star — well, before he was Neo — in "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure." If you've seen it, you know why it's awesome. If you've never had the chance, we won't waste your time discussing plot details. Just go see it, mind unfettered, and take in the brilliance of two young men and their never-ending excellence. Bonus: the late, great George Carlin is in it too.
