Four Weeks of Kathryn Bigelow: Point Break
🗓 Thursday, August 27 | ⏰ Doors: 6PM | 🎬 Film: 8PM | 📍 TicTic, Phnom Penh
We close out Four Weeks of Kathryn Bigelow on the wildest note of the bunch: Point Break. It follows Johnny Utah, a rookie FBI agent who goes undercover in the Southern California surfing scene to catch a gang of bank robbers known as the Ex-Presidents, who commit their heists wearing masks of former U.S. presidents. Starring Keanu Reeves and Patrick Swayze, the film traces Utah's growing bond with the gang's charismatic, spiritually-minded leader Bodhi, as the line between cop and criminal, duty and desire, blurs across surfing, skydiving and shootouts.
Developed with her then-husband James Cameron and shot across the western US coast, Point Break became Bigelow's commercial breakthrough and has endured as one of the most beloved action films of the 1990s, later landing on Empire's list of the 100 greatest movies ever made. Its legacy runs deep: it directly inspired The Fast and the Furious, and in 2025 AMC greenlit a sequel series set decades after the original, a testament to just how enduring the Ex-Presidents' legend has become.
