Maximum Kubrick

Stanley Kubrick, a cinematic giant and master of the big screen celebrated here on the very largest screen in the UK.

Kubrick’s films are awesome to behold. He has the reputation of a master admired by masters – from Martin Scorsese to Steven Spielberg to Orson Welles to Christopher Nolan.

The works of Kubrick are landmarks of their respective genres, from costume drama (Barry Lyndon) to comedy (Dr. Strangelove), horror (The Shining) and science fiction (2001: A Space Odyssey).

There’s something for everyone, beginning with our special presentation of 2001: A Space Odyssey on IMAX 70mm from ‘unrestored’ 70mm prints supervised and approved by Nolan to The Shining this December with a newly restored IMAX with Laser version for the film’s 45th anniversary.
