John Wick! Speed! Point Break! The Matrix!
Keanu Reeves is forever.
We know this due to the fact that he refuses to age, and because of his impressive career renaissance that arrived right around the time that the sharp-suited John Wick turned up.
If anyone is going to be confirmed as an immortal*, we’re happy for it to be Keanu.
As such, the man is worth honouring. Step forward the good folk at Dublin’s Light House and Galway’s Pálás cinemas, respectively, and their summer celebration.
Keanurama takes place between 10 May and 12 July, with a host of Keanu movies scheduled for the silver screen.
“Keanu has been gracing our screens in some of our favourite films for four decades now and we thought it was about time we devoted an entire season to him,” goes the official blurb.
“To celebrate his appearance in no less than three brand new films this summer, along with a re-release of The Matrix on its 20th anniversary, we’ll be screening some of Keanu’s most iconic films for you to enjoy big and loud on the big screen.”
Splendid.
As for what’s in store, it looks like this:
- John Wick Chapters 1 & 2 double bill
- Destination Wedding
- Bram Stoker’s Dracula
- John Wick Chapter 3: Parabellum
- Speed 35MM
- A Scanner Darkly 35MM
