Ursula Andress and Sean Connery

Probably my favorite scene from the movie.

When Honey Ryder meets James Bond.

In the book, Doctor No, Honey Ryder’s real name is Honeychili Rider.

Hence, our Honey Wine with Red Chili’s.

How Gordon Rigged Up Our Movie Night

To accomplish this, I bought a projector and a laptop computer DVD player as my laptop doesn’t have a way to play DVD’s. When I play the DVD on my computer, the projector will show it on what we point it on. Above you can see the movie playing on my laptop. The technology is fairly simple and works great as all you need is a flat surface to project the movie on.

Time To Start The Movie

Ahhh. It’s nice and cool and starting to get dark. Perfect for our movie night.

Time To Watch The Movie…

Here you can see we projected the movie onto our sail which we have two of. These sails are great to give shade to our lanai and a great surface to project a movie upon. The sails are triangular in shape when put together, they provide a good amount of shade. Our white stanchions that hold up our lanai, are six ft. apart making it easy to attach the triangular shades. Which makes it easy for us to watch our movie.

I could fall asleep…..

The Sails/Movie Screen

After figuring out the size of the space I wanted to cover, I went online and found these white sails. I made sure to give room to attach the sails to our screened in lanai. They only cost about $25 dollars each and came in many different colors. I picked these as they had some of the best reviews. I attached the sails to the beams using metal hangers, S shaped hooks and some rope.

Enjoy the Cinema.

See you in the movies!

Julie and Gordon
