News Times are reporting that The Museum of Modern Art will be holding a special screening of “Frankenweenie” this Sunday!

The Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53rd St., is screening films in conjunction with its ongoing Tim Burton exhibit.

Sunday at 2:30 p.m., the museum is presenting a double-bill of “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas” with the director’s bizarre 1984 animated short, “Frankenweenie,” which first brought him to the attention of Hollywood movie executives. The movie scared the executives at Disney which funded it and became a legend as the studio refused to screen it. Years later, they proudly released it on video.

“Frankenweenie” combines animation with live actors including the late great Joseph Maher, who lived in Fairfield for many years.

Film free with $20 MOMA admission.
