Don't make history, steal it instead! Our Frida Cinema Members Only screening in June is none other than the 1981 family classic, Time Bandits in a stunning, brand new 4K restoration.
Young history buff Kevin (Craig Warnock) can scarcely believe it when six dwarfs emerge from his closet one night. Former employees of the Supreme Being, they've purloined a map charting all of the holes in the fabric of time and are using it to steal treasures from different historical eras. Taking Kevin with them, they variously drop in on Napoleon, Robin Hood and King Agamemnon before the Supreme Being catches up with them.
The first film in Gilliam's "Trilogy of Imagination", Time Bandits is an adventure as comically strange and irreverent as its creator.
We are OC’s year-round film festival.
