Young Guns—In this film, which is very loosely based on actual events and people, Emilio Estevez stars as Billy the Kid. Sought for a petty crime in Lincoln County, Billy is taken in by John Tunstall (Terrence Stamp), a British ranch owner seeking to make it in the cattle business. Tunstall's business interests come into conflict with those of corrupt and murderous businessman Lawrence Murphy (Jack Palance), whose widespread connections make him a power to be reckoned with. Filmed entirely in New Mexico, the 1988 film helped to briefly revive the Western genre. Rated R for language. Also screening: a half-hour documentary, The Real Billy the Kid 1:30 p.m. Admission (includes museum) adults $3, seniors $2, ages 6 to 17 $1.
