Steven Spielberg's all time classic sci-fi adventure sees a little alien, abandoned by his pot-belled extraterrestrial buds, navigate life on Earth with the help of ten-year-old Elliott. Elliott's an equally lonely little boy who proceeds to teach his chum how to talk, dress up in women's clothes and drink beer. We've all been there. It's a special, delightful adventure that is one of the BFI's list of 50 films you should most definitely see by the age of 14, so come and join us for one of the greatest ever children's fantasies enjoying a rare outing on the big screen.
