Action
Throwing you into the explosive world of action.
Early action films, such as the works of Buster Keaton, introduced audiences to chase sequences, protagonists in peril and literal cliffhangers; all tropes that had a great influence on directors that would follow. Inspired by the BFI's 2024 nationwide season on stunt-work, we will be throwing you into the explosive world of action; from these early pioneers to the boundary-pushing films of the 80s/90s, through to today’s new wave of action stars. Experience the genre through the ages with a selection of cult classics to lesser-known gems from around the world - all of which are guaranteed to provide unparalleled thrills.
