Fan favourites including Stand by Me, Bridget Jones’ Diary and Top Gun return to Vue venues in Scotland this spring.
Kicking things off is the 40th anniversary screening of Stand by Me, which follows four boys who decide to go see the body of a boy that has died in their rural hometown - an adventure that evolves into a defining event in their lives.
Also returning to the big screen is 80s classic, Top Gun. Catch Tom Cruise as a daring young student pilot who learns a few things from a civilian instructor that are not taught in the classroom. Showing from 15 May, fans can also enjoy a re-release of the sequel, Top Gun: Maverick, for a limited run.
A trio of classic female-led comedies will also be returning as part of the season, beginning with everyone’s favourite diarist in Bridget Jones’s Diary - starring Renée Zellweger in the titular role - which returns for its 25th anniversary from 17 April. Also celebrating 25 years since its initial release is the ultimate sorority-queen-turned-lawyer caper Legally Blonde starring Reese Witherspoon (returning 22 May) and an epic ensemble cast (including Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy and Rose Byrne) in Bridesmaids, returning 15 years after its initial release from 5 June.
The iconic thriller The Silence of the Lambs – featuring Anthony Hopkins and Jodie Foster in career-defining, Oscar-winning roles - returns from 24 April. Other highlights include the anniversary releases of the riotous comedy The Birdcage, the cult fantasy adventure Highlander, and the feel-good family favourite Space Jam.
Rob Lea, Head of Screen Content of Vue UK and Ireland, said: “At Vue, we know there’s nothing quite like experiencing a great film on the big screen. This anniversary season gives audiences the chance to revisit some of their all-time favourites the way they were meant to be seen, on the big screen, while also introducing these iconic titles to a new generation of film fans.”
