Big, bold and awe-inspiring, Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey is an experience that demands to be seen on the big screen. Kubrick’s aim was not only to expand the language of film, but to test the limits of special effects in cinema. 45 years later they have rarely been matched. From the dawn of man to the near future in space to uncharted territory, 2001 is a hypnotic, philosophical sci-fi journey. There have been great, important, influential American films, but no one piece of cinema has done so much for movies as this one. Experience Kubrick’s ambitious, mind-blowing epic on the big screen. It’s unlike anything you will ever see.  OFS is thrilled to announce our first Science on Screen series!  We welcome Leslie Shore, Ph.D to the theater for a lively discussions of existentialism, human evolution, technology, artificial intelligence, and extraterrestrial life.
