Academy Museum Branch Selects Screening Series
Co-presented with Everyman at The Whiteley
The Academy is in London! Time for our big speech.
We're over the moon to be partnering with the Academy Museum for a new programme of film screenings that celebrate the classics we all know, and some that we should know.
Beginning this October, the Academy Museum Branch Selects screening series will bring a variety of films back to the big screen for new audiences, new perspectives and new appreciation. Setting up a weekly residency in our newest cinema at The Whiteley in Bayswater, the Academy Museum has worked with the 19 branches of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to curate a line-up of films that showcase the incredible artists of Hollywood and beyond.
This series makes a winner out of all the talented people who create movie magic. So whether you're considering an old favourite, or discovering something for the first time, you're sure to leave with stars in your eyes.
