Spielberg at 80: A.I. Artificial Intelligence (2001)

As part of our Spielberg at 80 season, A.I. Artificial Intelligence is one of Spielberg’s most reflective and emotional films. Set in a future shaped by technology and climate change, it follows a robot boy who longs for the love of a family. The result is a visually striking, heartfelt story that asks big questions about what it means to be human.

As our film from the 2000s, it shows Spielberg in a more contemplative mode — thoughtful, imaginative and still pushing the boundaries of what sci‑fi can be.

NT Live: Les Liaisons Dangereuses

BAFTA Award-winner Lesley Manville (Phantom Thread) joins Aidan Turner (Rivals) in a striking new staging of Christopher Hampton’s celebrated adaptation of the classic novel, where among the glittering salons of the super-rich, one misstep can mean ruin.

Marquise de Merteuil is a master in the art of survival. Alongside the magnetic Vicomte de Valmont, they turn seduction into strategy and weaponise desire. But when their alliance collapses into rivalry, the battle between them threatens to destroy everyone in their path.

Filmed live on stage at the National Theatre, Marianne Elliott (Angels in America) directs this thrilling game of love, lies, and social warfare.
