L.A. film lovers, consider this your final call. Bugonia, the latest feature from visionary filmmaker Yorgos Lanthimos, is wrapping up its limited 35mm engagement at the historic TCL Chinese Theatre. For just a few more days, audiences can see the film in the format that best captures its hypnotic tone and striking visual world.
The film has generated plenty of conversation since its premiere — and even a bit of spectacle. Earlier this fall, a select group of L.A. fans shaved their heads to gain entry to an early Bugonia screening. And now, its limited 35mm run offers the purest way to experience it. No need to shave your head.
Bugonia in 35mm: Lanthimos’ surreal vision brought to life
Following its acclaimed festival debut, Bugonia reunites Lanthimos with longtime collaborator Emma Stone in a surreal, unsettling exploration of humanity, control, and transformation. As with The Favourite and Poor Things, the director’s sharp visual language and darkly comic tone are in full force. The result is an experience that feels both immediate and dreamlike, pushing the boundaries of how we see and interpret the human condition.
The TCL Chinese Theatre, with its monumental design and deep ties to Hollywood history, provides an ideal setting for Lanthimos’ strange new world. This special 35mm engagement ends soon, making it one of the last chances to experience Bugonia in its purest cinematic form. Grab your tickets now:
