Alex Garland is a great Director, an excellent writer and he loves (as do I) journeys to the heart of darkness stories, from the summary we got it seems like this will be no different. The poem recited here is called boots and it generally references the madness of endless forced marches across South Africa, these infantryman who were made to do it, likely never set foot there before, no idea of the dangers, no idea how fucking massive africa actually is (maps lie) and are told to just move forward, and because theres a war on (the 2nd boer war) they can't just quit when it becomes maddening. Theres a very anti-war/colonial theme running through it I find almost a "why the fuck am i here" vibe. Speaking of... Heart of Darkness (the book) itself is a journey down a river in Africa witnessing aspects of the slave trade at the time, only getting worse as they go. In this it seems that mainland UK is now that unknown territory, no idea what the dangers are, no idea what has survived and what hasn't and it will likely get worse as it goes and they can't quit, because their work is likely critical to survival. Theres so many themes running through this already and we have like... 2 minutes to work with haha. I feel this is what happens when Garland gets to focus on the writing, and with Frankie whos got such a strong visual style I think we're in for a horrifying treat.
@USER.EXE.UA-cam it's a simple question mate, I'm asking what the other good film in your opinion is, but you choose to be a smartarse about it instead 🤣
@@SteveG-k8q well it's definitely not something hard to find so you still can find it by yourself,watch Wolf Man release January 17. Good enough answer?
What are your thoughts on the new trailer for 28 Years later?
This is probably one of the best tone setting trailers I’ve seen in a long time.
💯💯💯
Been waiting a very LONG time for this one
Poem by Rudyard Kipling “Boots”
Can’t wait.
