1982: The Future Classics

1982 would go down in history as one of the most eclectic, genre defining and richest years in cinema. We're celebrating this pivotal year throughout 2022, forty years later, with a lineup of incredibly influential films from around the globe. We launch this monumental season with Ridley Scott's BLADE RUNNER. Much maligned on its initial release and a box office bomb, BLADE RUNNER, based on Philip K. Dick's Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep?, received a reissue in 1992 in which Scott removed the Philip Marlowe-esque narration, and a further recut in 2007 - THE FINAL CUT - which we're presenting here from its new 4K digital master.

Each month we'll be presenting a film from 1982 - after BLADE RUNNER we have work by Sydney Pollack, Nicholas Meyer, Tobe Hooper (or Steven Spielberg, depending on who you believe), Jim Henson, Martin Scorcese, Amy Heckerling and other filmmaking legends...
