When Stanley Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey opened in April 1968, few in the audience understood it, though most would never admit it. All they knew was they had just seen something like they had never seen before.
The Cannes Film Festival celebrated the 50th anniversary of 2001: A Space Odyssey with the world premiere of an unrestored 70mm print, introduced by Christopher Nolan on May 12.
