SUMMER OF ’99
Welcome to the SUMMER OF ’99, before smartphones, social media, and streaming. Pre-doom scroll, bed rot, and AI ubiquity. 1999 wasn’t just another year—it was THE year. The one that redefined cinema.
It was a launching pad for today’s biggest filmmakers, a breakout year for indie film, and a cultural turning point that echoes today. Think: Stanley Kubrick’s Eyes Wide Shut, Pedro Almodóvar’s All About My Mother, Sofia Coppola’s The Virgin Suicides, Paul Thomas Anderson’s Magnolia, and Spike Jonze and Charlie Kaufman’s Being John Malkovich. The list goes on and on.
Join us as we celebrate this incredible year in cinema all summer long!
