2001: A Space Odyssey
(1968)
Directed by Stanley
Kubrick this film inspired by the short story “The Sentinel”
stars Keir Dullea, Gary Lockwood and William Sylvester. A strange
object is discovered on the moon and astronauts are sent to
investigate what it might be communicating with.
All throughout this
film is filled with stunning visuals and special effects, often
accompanied by classical music. While the plot of the film is not
especially dense there are some iconic moments within what is more of
a slow meditation of a film. The film is open to interpretation and
has elicited much discussion but seems pretty clearly to have a main
theme of man's evolution, raising questions about our future.
5/5
