Calling all Fellini Film Lovers in Sunrise Park Neighborhood
Fellini Retrospective series continues Friday, March 3rd
The Palm Springs Cultural Center has generously extended “First Friday Free Films” to Sunrise Park neighbors for the first Friday of the month in 2023 for their "Fellini Retrospective series." This month’s film is “Juliet of the Spirits” on March 3rd with a show time of 7 p.m. The Bar opens at 5 p.m. for Italian food specials. Come early and mingle with neighbors and fellow film lovers.
UPDATE: "One Fine Morning" is also available to us this Friday at 4:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Go to www.psculturalcenter.org for details.
Here's more information about "JULIET OF THE SPIRITS" (1965)
Middle-aged Giulietta (Giulietta Masina) grows suspicious of her husband, Giorgio (Mario Pisu), when his behavior grows increasingly questionable. One night when Giorgio initiates a seance amongst his friends, Giulietta gets in touch with spirits and learns more about herself and her painful past. Slightly skeptical, but intrigued, she visits a mystic who gives her more information -- and nudges her toward the realization that her husband is indeed a philanderer.

Great news! Traffic speeds are being reduced in and around Sunrise Park.
Great news! Traffic speeds are being reduced in and around Sunrise Park.
Neighbors in Sunrise Park and other neighborhoods in Palm Springs have expressed concerns about traffic speeds in and around our neighborhood. In an effort to reduce the number of traffic collisions and fatalities in the city, thirty-six segments of local streets are set to have reduced speed limits. Most of the street segments will have speed limits lowered by 5 mph, while a few street segments will be reduced by 10 or 15 mph.
The roads in and around Sunrise Park with speed limits reductions are:
- Alejo Road from Sunrise Way to Farrell Drive (45 mph to 40 mph)
- Amado Road from Sunrise Way to Farrell Drive (40 mph to 35 mph)
- Baristo Road from Sunrise Way to Farrell Drive (40 mph to 35 mph)
- Baristo Road from Farrell Drive to El Cielo Road (40 mph to 35 mph)
- Farrell Drive from Alejo Road to Ramon Road (45 mph to 40 mph)
These changes were made possible with the passage of a bill last year that gives California cities more flexibility to target speeding in unsafe areas.
