But not only this, it will be a special version of the film with exclusive video commentary from Sacha Baron Cohen and the film‘s director Larry Charles.

Entry is free of charge and each audience member will be given 2 free drinks at the bar. If that wasn‘t enough there will be some "Bruno" goodies being given away to lucky audience members on the night.

Sacha Baron Cohen and Director Larry Charles share their best–kept filming secrets in a video commentary, showing for the first time ever how the duo pulled off some of the most flamboyant, most headline grabbing stunts of the year!
Bradley Cooper takes a stroll through "Dark Fields"
06 November 2009
This week has been marked by wholesale casting changes, first with "The Tourist" and now Neil Bruger‘s ("The Illusionist") "Dark Fields". Originally set to star Shia LaBeouf in the lead role, the "Transformers" star has, obviously, since balked at the project and made way for "The Hangover‘s" Bradley Cooper. This will make for a nice doubleheader for Cooper after his work in the forthcoming "A–Team".

Based on the Alan Glynn book of the same name, "Dark Fields" will tell the story of a struggling writer who takes a top–secret pharmaceutical drug that exponentially boosts his brainpower. However, there‘s a catch. The down–on–his–luck scribe starts experiencing a ‘trip–switching‘ phenomenon that makes him perceive time differently to everyone else.

Hollywood Reporter‘s Heat Vision Blog describes the film thus; ‘Imagine a drug that makes your brain function with perfect efficiency, tapping into your most fundamental resources of intelligence and drive, releasing all the passive knowledge you‘d ever accumulated. A drug that made you focused, charming, fast, even attractive. Eddie Spinola is on such a drug. It‘s called MDT–48, and it‘s Viagra for the brain – a designer drug that‘s redesigning his life. But while MDT is helping Eddie achieve the kind of success he‘s only dreamed about, it‘s also chipping away at his sanity–splitting headaches, spontaneous blackouts, violent outbursts. And now that he‘s hooked and his supply is running low, Eddie must venture into the drug‘s dark past to feed his habit. What he discovers proves that MDT, once a dream come true, has become his worst nightmare.‘
