DESCRIPTION:December 21:\n\nLocation: 600 4th St, West Sacramento.  Corner of 4th & F 
 in West Sac, just over the river near The Pyramid Building.  7:00 PM.  
 Admission: $5.00.\n\nMovies on a Big Screen presents The Man From 
 Earth:\nIf Jerome Bixby's name doesn't ring a bell, he was the author of 4 
 acclaimed original Star Trek episodes ("Requiem for Methuselah," "Mirror, 
 Mirror," "Day of the Dove," and "By Any Other Name"), the Twilight Zone 
 episode, "It's a Good Life," the 1966 film "Fantastic Voyage," and even 
 "It, The Terror From Beyond Space," (which was heavily borrowed from for 
 "Alien").  Bixby first conceived the idea for "The Man From Earth" in the 
 early 1960's, but the script was not completed until 1998 shortly before 
 Bixby's death.  \n\nAbout "The Man From Earth:"\nAn impromptu goodbye party 
 for Professor John Oldman, played by David Lee Smith  ("Star Trek Voyager," 
 "Mysterious Skin," "Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood," becomes a 
 mysterious interrogation after the retiring scholar reveals to his 
 colleagues he is an immortal who has walked the earth for 14,000 years.  
 \n\nAlthough shot in only two weeks on a very limited budget, the stellar 
 authorship of Bixby is brilliantly portrayed. Don't expect scifi with a lot 
 of special effects - this is most definitely scifi for those who like to 
 think.\n\n"The Man From Earth" also stars John Billingsley ("Star Trek: 
 Enterprise"), Ellen Crawford ("ER"), Tony Todd ("Candyman," "Star Trek Next 
 Generation," Star Trek Deep Space Nine"), Richard Riehle (noted character 
 actor with over 120 credits to his name), and William Katt ("Carrie," "The 
 Greatest American Hero," "Jawbreaker").  Directed by Richard Schenkman 
 ("Went to Coney Island on a Mission from God... Be Back by 
 Five").\n\n"Quietly restores dignity to science fiction of the mind. For 
 those who like to flex their brain, 'Man From Earth' is a rewarding 
 workout. - Twitch\n\nSeating is mostly on folding chairs - feel free to 
 bring a pillow or cushion, or even your own chair!  Digital projection on 
 to a large screen. \n\nMovies on a Big Screen presents regular Friday 
 evening film screenings (and occasionally, other nights, too)!\nYou can
