Bainbridge Cinemas in the Pavilion has announced it will show the controversial film “The Interview.”

The film will be shown at Bainbridge Cinemas on Christmas and each night through Dec. 31. Each showing will be at 9 p.m.

The action-comedy film was at the center of a computer hacking attack against Sony Pictures Entertainment, and the company later announced the film would not be screened.

The FBI said North Korea, which is central to the movie’s plot, was involved in the hacking.

After considerable public outcry — including criticism by the media, President Barack Obama and many in the motion picture industry — independent cinemas announced they would show the film on Christmas following Sony’s decision to allow limited release of the R-rated movie.

“The Interview” stars James Franco as Dave Skylark and Seth Rogen as his producer, Aaron Rapoport. The pair produce the hit celebrity tabloid TV show “Skylark Tonight,” and after they find that North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un is a big fan of the show, they land an interview. The CIA then recruits the pair to assassinate the dictator.
