About
One of the most visually extraordinary blockbusters ever conceived, Mad Max: Fury Road is an unrelenting cascade of aesthetic extravagance and sensorial overload. Returning to the post-apocalyptic landscape of the Mad Max universe, the film follows Max (Tom Hardy) as he allies himself with the battle-hardened Furiosa (Charlize Theron) as they flee across the desert, pursued by the bloodthirsty warlord Immortan Joe (Hugh Keays-Byrne). Immediately hailed as a major achievement in action cinema, Fury Road received critical and commercial acclaim – including six Academy Awards – along with praise for John Seale's innovative and unforgettably vivid cinematography.
This screening of Mad Max: Fury Road will be of the ‘Black & Chrome’ cut, which presents the film in stark monochrome. The removal of the film’s vibrant colour highlights the searing power of the imagery, conjuring a completely unique journey into the Mad Max wasteland.
