Next Stop on Our Journey Through Time: 12 Monkeys PDF @ Zoetropolis – Thursday, June 19, 6:30PM Our Cinematic Time Travels series continues with Terry Gilliam’s dystopian masterpiece, 12 Monkeys (1995), a film that scrambles chronology, memory, and madness into a haunting meditation on fate, history, and human error. Inspired by Chris Marker’s La Jetée—our first screening in the series—12 Monkeys transforms the photo-roman’s still imagery and temporal dislocation into a full-blown sci-fi fever dream starring Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe, and a scene-stealing Brad Pitt. In a future devastated by a deadly virus, a time-traveling convict is sent back to uncover the truth about the mysterious “Army of the 12 Monkeys.” But time, as Gilliam reminds us, is not so easily navigated. Memories shift. Events refuse to stay in line. And the more our protagonist uncovers, the more uncertain his mission—and identity—become. Join us for a night of gripping cinema, lively discussion, and time loops you won’t soon forget. And of course, we’ll be pairing the film with another Lancaster Distilling-inspired specialty cocktail.
