weekend films On Campus "Fanny and Alexander" A simple story but one elegantly told, Ingmar Bergman's obviously affectionate 1983 paean to family security and the adventure of theater won heaps of critical acclaim, as well as four Academy Awards more than any other single foreign-language film has won so far. Cheerier and warmer than the master's usual lot, and quite enjoyable , . Erland Josephson. 8 p.m. tomorrow and Monday, 112 Kern. "Romancing the Stone" Kathleen Turner and Michael Douglas give solid performances in this hit adventure pic which takes these two (through, naturally, a series of outrageous circumstances) on a thrill packed jaunt through various South American locales.

Sondra lipcke, Pat Hingle. 7, 9 and 11 tonight and tomorrow; 7 and 9 p.m. Sunday, 108 Forum. "Monty Python's The Meaning of Life" Under the manic interpretations of the Pythons, well, the meaning may become even more obscure and, for that matter, less important.

John Cleese, Michael Palin, Terry Jones. 7,9 and 11 tonight; 7 and 10:30 p.m. tomorrow; 7 and 9 p.m. Sunday, 101 Chambers.

"The Day the Earth Stood Still" Better-than-average sci-fi fare pits well-meaning alien Michael Rennie against a hyperactive brood of earthlings, with only a nice, all- American family and a giant robot on his side. Humanistic, amusing and quite good, too. Sam Jaffe, Patricia Neal. 7, 9 and 11 tonight and tomorrow; 7 and 9 p.m. Sunday, Pollock Rec Room. "Kelly's Heroes" This mundane World War II comedy adventure about . a motley band of Gls who learn of a hidden cacht. of Nazi gold succeeds by virtue of its weirdness and backroom humor.

Sigourney Weaver, John Hurt, Yaphet Kotto. 7, 9 and 11 tonight and tomorrow; 7 and 9 p.m. Sunday, 102 Forum. "Love Story" What can you say about such a dippy movie as this?

Genevieve Bujold. 8 and 10 nightly; 2,4, 6, 8 and 10 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday, Movies. "Revenge of the Nerds" You just gotta love a movie with as arcane a title as that. Names aside, though, this reversal on teen-sex comedies is bold enough to stand toe-to-toe against others of its genre and come out smelling like a new car, thanks to a witty, lighthearted script, Jeff Kanew's affectionate direction and Robert Carradine's performance that at once defies and fulfills all those stereotypical notions about quintessential "nerd-dom." 8 and 10 nightly; 2,4, 6, 8 and 10 p.m. tomorrow and Sunday, Cinema I and 11.
