National Theatre Live: A View from the Bridge

In Brooklyn, longshoreman Eddie Carbone welcomes his Sicilian cousins to the land of freedom. But when one of them falls for his beautiful niece, they discover that freedom comes at a price. Filmed live on-stage from London’s West End, Arthur Miller’s dark and passionate play A View from the Bridge returns exclusively to cinema screens. Many of our younger customers will be studying this classic of American literature for English and/or Drama exams. This is an encore screening of a production by the Young Vic that was first staged in 2015. Ivo Van Hove (All About Eve, Network) directs Mark Strong (The Imitation Game; Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) and Nicola Walker (The Split, Last Tango in Halifax) in this ‘magnetic, electrifying, astonishingly bold’ production (Evening Standard). “Miller re-invented with visceral power” ***** Guardian “Ivo van Hove’s magnificent reconception of Arthur Miller’s A View From the Bridge, takes you into extreme emotional territory that you seldom dare visit in daily life.” New York Times 12A: one bloody scene We look forward to welcoming audiences back to the Screen Machine.
