A brilliant film...for the first 30 minutes where it begins to go a bit sideways with an MTV-ish break that goes on entirely too long and it also re-cycles its earlier ideas repeatedly. For those who don't know much about quantum physics, it may be a bit upsetting to realize "before" and "after" have little meaning, really. Or that objects can be in two (or many more) places simultaneously---and then, for all practical purposes, disappear. Or that (moving away a bit from quantum physics, for a moment) strong, repetitive emotions can act exactly like heroin upon our axons and dendrites.
Still, a shockingly good performance from Marlee Matlin: the best single female performance I've seen this year.
And, what's more, she does something equally important: she re-invents what beautiful means. In today's world of non-sexuality of women (perhaps due to industry fears of being called, horrors, "sexist!") in mainstream and indies films, Matlin exudes fire and passion---and sensuality.
Physically, she lets us see her imperfections: a few too many pounds, here and there, a bit too much nose.
But, overall, in a word, she looks...fabulous. A REAL woman and not some emaciated, girlish (or boyish, for that matter), cartoon-perfect waif.
Bravo to Marlee.
Go see this film!
(I almost flipped at one point: when I was a film student in Portland, I lived in a loft seemingly in the same building above that very basketball court and my student film used that exact location!)
Follow Ups:
about some very interesting/fascinating ideas.
"Where are we going? And what am I doing in this hand basket?"
...rather than brilliant. It does make you think and there are far too few films that do that.I read a review of the film in Popular Science shortly after it came out and they trashed a lot of the science in it and claimed many of the actual scientists interviewed were unhappy because they had been editied unfairly.
Then there are the psychics who speak along with the quantum physisists and you have trouble separating one from the other on the screen. Both are given equal credibility.
Interesting.
I couldn't disagree more. It was one of the stupidest films I have ever seen. I thought it failed miserably on every level as a film. I'd call it Sesame Street does quantum physics but I'd be insulting Sesame. They at least got their facts right. If you really want a layman's education on the subject buy "Shrodinger's Cat" by John Gribbons.
What about beaming?
adsg
No, no Oregon wine.
Just a little bit of quantum...You may not be awared but the first success in " Beaming " has been obtained.
adfhgsgh
You spoke of the Quant theory and praxis.
So it is possible now to see the first success in physic for beaming.
I was also referring to S.Treck and to " Beamer " here in Europe a " projector.
But if you have to explain all...
