Career criminal Johnny Clay is planning a heist. The stakes are high and betrayal is afoot in this new restoration of Kubrick's iconic film noir.
Arriving in a new restoration for its 70th anniversary, Kubrick’s lean, mean, film noir follows career criminal Johnny Clay – recently released from prison and planning a heist on a racetrack with a two million dollar bounty. But Johnny hasn’t reckoned on the duplicitous wife of one of his team, and soon betrayal threatens to spoil the whole caper.
Screening to complement our Stanley Kubrick course on Saturday 18 July, alongside A Clockwork Orange and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
