2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY at the ‘Reel Late at the Tivoli’ Midnight Series this Weekend

2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY (1968) is one of the seminal points in the development of film and cinema. Future directors like Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and James Cameron, to mention just a few, were  inspired by Stanley Kubrick’s masterpiece. It’s easy to see why. You’ll have a rare chance  to revisit this majestic cinema classic on the big screen when it plays midnight at the Tivoli in St. Louis as part of their Reel Late Midnight series this weekend (May 24th and 25th).

I’ve watched 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY recently and the positives for me were how good the film looks for something made in 1968. Yes, there are a few scenes that are clearly influenced by 60’s fashion but the past and future sets on the whole have a timeless quality. The use of music and the ballerina-like atmosphere were things of beauty and proof that Kubrick really was a genius.

I will be there with 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY trivia and prizes FRIDAY NIGHT ONLY so bone up on your H.A.L. knowledge!

Admission is only EIGHT BUCKS!
