The Matrix 20th Anniversary Screening, with (in order) The Matrix, and The Matrix Reloaded, and The Matrix Revolutions

The Matrix Revisited

No two directors have set out to redefine and reinvent late 20th- and early 21st-century cinema more so than The Wachowskis. On the 20th anniversary of the release of The Matrix, IU Cinema proudly presents the entirety of The Matrix trilogy—the most ambitious trilogy and multimedia project based off of an original idea since 1977’s Star Wars. Starting with the landmark 1999 film that reshaped action for more than a decade and ending with two films that question the very nature of the first, The Matrix trilogy includes three grandiose pieces of cinema about love, identity, mythology, and choice which are as misunderstood as they are beloved. The three films will be presented as one screening with films screened back-to-back with approximately 30-minutes between screenings and no clearing of the Cinema.  One ticket will gain entry for all three films, and patrons may arrive or leave at any point during the screening marathon.
