2001 : A Space Odyssey
1968 160mins UK, USA (U) Science Fiction
Directed by Stanley Kubrick Starring Keir Dullea, Gary Lockwood, William Sylvester

Warner Bros. Pictures present an ‘unrestored’ 70mm print of the director’s groundbreaking science fiction epic!


"For the first time since the original release, this 70mm print was struck from new printing elements made from the original camera negative. This is a true photochemical film recreation. There are no digital tricks, remastered effects, or revisionist edits. This is the unrestored film - that recreates the cinematic event that audiences experienced fifty years ago." - Christopher Nolan


Stanley Kubrick’s dazzling, Academy Award®-winning* achievement is a compelling drama of man vs. machine, a stunning meld of music and motion. Kubrick (who co-wrote the screenplay with Arthur C. Clarke) first visits our prehistoric ape-ancestry past, then leaps millennia (via one of the most mind-blowing jump cuts ever) into colonized space, and ultimately whisks astronaut Bowman (Keir Dullea) into uncharted space, perhaps even into immortality. “Open the pod bay doors, HAL.” Let an awesome journey unlike any other begin.


Please Note: Our 70mm screenings of '2001: A Space Odyssey' follow a partictular presentation procedure;

- Overture (3mins / Music)

- 1st half of feature (86mins)

- * Intermission* (usually 10 for quieter shows, can be 20mins for busier ones)

- Entracte (2mins / Music)

- 2nd half of feature (54mins)

- Exit (5mins / Music)


- Total time; approx 170mins (though this is dependent on Intermission length)
