Steven Spielberg celebrates his 80th Birthday in 2026 and we're launching Spielberg At 80 with a rare screening of The Sugarland Express, which will be preceded by an exclusive conversation with Mike Mattesino, producer of the newly restored soundtrack release to the film by John Williams in his first collaboration with the filmmaker.
More films from the celebrated director will follow throughout the year including early works such as Close Encounters of the Third Kind (with a brilliant role for acclaimed French director, Francois Truffaut), E.T. The Extra Terrestrial, his 1987 masterpiece Empire of the Sun - a sublime J G Ballard adaptation - and more.
