Top Ten SF Movies

   We had hoped to show all ten of the "Top Ten SF Movies of the 20th
   Century" but we were unable to obtain "2001: A Space Odyssey" and
   "Close Encounters of the Third Kind" in large format film. Please
   check the Daily Newsletter and Information Desk for times those two
   are showing on video.
