The Matrix

No upcoming showtimes scheduled.
Director: Lilly Wachowski, Lana Wachowski, Lilly Wachowski, Lana Wachowski
1999 / 136min / 35mm

Keanu Reeves’s cubicle drone/hacker “Neo” gets a rude awakening, discovering that the real world he knows is a shared hallucination and that humankind are being harvested for bioelectricity by their machine overlords. A watershed movie, not only for the popularization of Hong Kong “wire fu” fighting techniques imported by choreographer Yuen Woo-ping, but for the flexible red pill and blue pill metaphor it introduced, adopted by paranoiacs of all political affiliations.
