Ghost in the Shell (1995)
About the event
When the Wachowskis were pitching The Matrix to their producers, they showed them this movie and said: "We wanna do that for real." The film defined a visual identity for cyberpunk media that continues to influence creators like James Cameron and Steven Spielberg. Join us for Mamoru Oshii's cyber-thriller masterpiece on Wednesday, September 23 at 6:00 PM at the historic Big Roxie.
This is a rare chance to see the classic cell-animation which was restored last year for its 30th anniversary. The film is 1 hour and 23 minutes long and will be shown in Japanese with English subtitles. Note that the Roxie starts its features more or less at the listed showtime!
