On October 17, 1961, the “Algerian workers” in France decided to demonstrate peacefully in the streets of Paris against the curfew imposed on them by the police headquarters.
All in all, “Event Horizon” is a cinematic misfire, begging to be perfected in the future. While it possesses an array of admirable visuals, the film leaves much to be desired. If only we could see Anderson’s preferred cut, which featured more character development and tortuous imagery. In the meantime, I have a catchphrase for this film: In space no one can hear you snore.
The film blends reality and the supernatural world together, leaving the viewer unsure of what’s real and what’s merely a figment of Michael’s agitated imagination.
A haunting look at grief, survival, and a mother’s quiet collapse in a world that never gave her room to fall.
At least we got the original cast back, right? Not even that saves it. None of them could bring a sliver of hope to this special. Rather, they bring dread as we witness the light leaving from their eyes.
The film exhibits a respect for the craft and an empathy for human tribulations that have historically been ignored.
