FYI: April is the last month for the Tim Burton Film/Art Exhibition that has been going on since November of 2009. It features three floors of his memorabilia: Sketches, storyboards, short film scenes, costumes from his films, puppets, literature, posters, and a retrospective of his films from 1984-2007. This is the last month to see any of his films on one of the Museum of Modern Art's big movie screens. I went in early March and had a good time, but, like some of you, was not aware that the expo had been steadily rotating all of his films since Thanksgiving. I was SO disappointed to find out that I'd missed a lot of the viewings. However, there still is time to see some of them, since it's been extended:
