An outdoor Clambake with friends can not be a grand time, but can turn into a night at the movies with a few easy steps. Popular movies can turn an ordinary clambake into a festive party. First of all, keep the guests outside and let the movies come to them. To show the movies outside during the clambake you will need to use a portable large screen or make a screen by using two large white sheets and draping them over a fence or hang them from another area to create a screen for the movies. Once the screens have been made then prepare your guests not only for the Clambake of the century, but for a great night at the movies.

Planning a Clambake can be rather simple with the right party supplies, food and movies. Therefore, bring on the fun with an assortment of movies fit for this party. “Clambake,” directed by Arthur H. Nadel and stars Elvis Presley, Bill Bixby and Shelley Fabares is a perfect movie for a Clambake. Elvis plays a water ski instructor that is really rich, but wants people to care about him for himself. This movie is not only interesting, but has a great deal of Elvis Presley music to keep your guests dancing in their seats.

Other great movies for a Clambake are:

• “Pirates of the Caribbean,” which was directed by Gore Verbinski and stars Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and Geoffrey Rush

• “Momma Mia,” which stars Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan.

• “Cape Fear,” starring Robert DeNiro, Nick Nolte and Jessica Lange< br>
• “Shag,” starring Phoebe Cates, Bridget Fonda and Scott Coffey

For most people a Clambake is a time to hang around friends, eat seafood and socialize, but adding special outdoor movies to the mix will be very entertaining and a lot of fun for everyone involved. Therefore, plan ahead and take the Clambake outdoors with a variety of movies, food and entertainment perfect for all your guests.
