In the 1980s, the genre of Science Fiction was in its prime once again, and George G. Lucas was at the forefront, spearheading the beachhead of this emerging vanguard. His masterwork came to a culmination in a masterpiece of a pièce de résistance, known to world as the ET: The Magnum Opus.
Critically ignored and publicly forgotten, we here at the 5th Annual New York International American Film Series, USA have attained an age-old print of the film('s 20th Anniversary Edition) and have pain-stakingly strained with persnickety meticulousity to restore all 172,800 frames of this Modern Wonder (It's #5, after Rod Stewart's seminal Greatest Hits).
And tomorrow, we plan on showing every single one of those frames on our roof, in order, with live accompaniment by John Williams and the Crown Heights Philharmonic.
