Special Screenings
Blade Runner (1982)
Ridley Scott · 118m · DCP
Los Angeles, 2019 — at least the one Ridley Scott imagined in 1982. Under endless rain and glowing neon, reluctant ex-cop Deckard (Harrison Ford) moves through streets that feel both crowded and lonely, hunting “replicants” — artificial humans — only to find the line between them and himself increasingly blurred. More than just the chase, Blade Runner prompts questions about what makes us human when identity and memory can be fabricated.
This is a Night Owls screening, free for all UCID holders.

The Phantom of the Opera (1925)
Rupert Julian · 107m · digital
Doc Films and Rockefeller Chapel are proud to present another Halloween silent movie night, complimented by live organ accompaniment by Dennis Scott. First published as a serial by author Gaston Leroux, this now classic tale of art and obsession follows Christine Daaé, a young, talented opera singer. However, her prodigious talent appears to have more sinister origins when it is revealed that she is under the influence of the mysterious "phantom" of the opera house (Lon Chaney).
This screening will be located at the Rockefeller Memorial Chapel. Free admission for all UCID and Doc pass holders.
