Stanley Kubrick's final film, Eyes Wide Shut, returns to the big screen for its 20th anniversary.
One night after attending an eventful Christmas party, Alice Harford (Nicole Kidman) tells her husband Bill (Tom Cruise) that she has had fantasies of being with other men. Shaken by this admission, Bill heads into the New York night on an obsessive journey of self-discovery, finding himself swept into a bizarre sexual underworld.
Delivered just days before his passing, Stanley Kubrick's mesmerising tale is the ultimate alternative festive film.
All screenings will start with a screening of new short-documentary Never Just a Dream: Stanley Kubrick and Eyes Wide Shut, featuring interviews with Katharina Kubrick, Jan Harlan and those who know the director best, recalling this final chapter of his career in moving detail.
