    The sixth Beijing International Film Festival announced on Monday the first part of its film screening list, six programs and 19 films in total, including the classic "Alien" series.

    The organizers of the festival said the Beijing Film Panorama section would screen four installments of the outer space thriller "Alien" franchise, as well as other film screenings to commemorate the 20th anniversary of Johnnie To and Wai Ka-Fai's production company Milky Way Image ("Running Out of Time", "PTU" and "Throw Down"), the 110th anniversary of the birth of American film master Billy Wilder ("Sunset Boulevard" and "The Apartment") and commemoration of three outstanding actresses Chen Yanyan ("The Striving" and "Love Without End"), Marilyn Monroe ("Gentlemen Prefer Blondes", "How to Marry a Millionaire", "River of No Return", "The Seven Year Itch" and "Some Like It Hot"), and Setsuko Hara ("Late Spring", "Early Summer" and "Tokyo Story").

    All these films are considered classic works in film history, and more will be added in due course.

    The Beijing Film Panorama this year will select about 300 outstanding films from both domestic and foreign sources that will collectively be screened for nearly a thousand times in 25 cinemas and five universities in Beijing.

    They include China Film Archive Art House, Broadway Cinematheque MOMA, Inside-Out Theatre and other art cinemas; high quality cinemas owned by Wanda Cinema Line Corporation and MEGABOX, etc.

    The festival will start on April 16. The Beijing Film Panorama, which always shows movies that had no chance to be released before on the Chinese mainland and has been a movie fan's ultimate dream since the launch of the event, will begin a week in advance, and there will be select advance screenings from April 8 to 15 and then continuing until the festival's close on April 23.
