Details FULL METAL JACKET (Stanley Kubrick, 1987, 35mm, 116 mins)
A Marine reporter — with ​“BORN TO KILL” scrawled on his helmet and a peace sign pinned to his flak jacket — witnesses the dehumanizing effects of the war machine, from the relentless rhythms of bootcamp indoctrination through the moral unravelling on the battlefields of Vietnam. ​“Visually poetic, darkly humorous, uncompromisingly brutal, and subversive in every way” (Radheyan Simonpillai). 35mm print from the George Eastman Museum.

The ​“Kubrick’s Maze” film series is a complete retrospective of the peerless, provocative cinema of Stanley Kubrick, screened entirely from film prints.
