Artist Choice Screening: The Land Before Time
Artist Lauren Gault has selected The Land Before Time as one of her Artist’s Choice Screenings and we’re delighted to be showing it as a special edition of Discovery Family Film Club.
An iconic staple of many childhood VHS collections, 1988’s The Land Before Time is a gorgeous hand-drawn journey back through the ages to a time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth. Directed by the legendary Don Bluth (An American Tail, All Dogs Go to Heaven, Anastasia) and produced by none other than George Lucas and Steven Spielberg (a good 5 years before Jurassic Park), it’s a funny and charming big-hearted adventure.
The film tells the timeless story of Littlefoot and an adorable gang of young dinosaurs on a perilous journey to the legendary Great Valley and back to their families. Mixing lovable characters, funny moments, and thrilling T-Rex chases, The Land Before Time charmed audiences.
About Artist’s Choice Screenings
Whenever possible, we invite artists to select films to screen in DCA cinema as part of our Exhibition Events programme. With films chosen to expand on and complement the exhibition, we hope audiences enjoy the chance to consider themes explored by artists in a different way.
