The Museum in partnership with Queens Theatre in the Park will present six of the greatest, must-see films of all time in Moving Image Masterpieces.
Stanley Kubrick's2001: A Space Odyssey is the final film in the series on November 19. Nothing less than an epic vision of the history of humanity from the clash of caveman to the space age, 2001 is Kubrick's masterpiece, a film about space travel that was made with the same spirit of innovation and technological bravura as the space program itself. The film works on numerous levels, including cold-war satire, darkly comic warning against dehumanization, and mind-expanding journey into a new form of human consciousness, with an abstract and mysterious final sequence that must be interpreted by the viewer. (1968, 141 mins. Digital projection on a big screen. With Keir Dullea.)
Screening introduced by David Schwartz, Chief Curator of Museum of the Moving Image.
