i've been wanting to start a thread on this movie ever since i saw it the other week...

the fountain

i have to say, it is a masterpiece. any fan of arnofsky's work will love it. and any one not familiar with him will fall in love... if they have any love for mind bending stories, that is.

it has a very similar feel to 2001: space oddessy, but its much more grounded. similar symbolism, but developes a much greater emotional attachement to the characters.

strangely, the musical score doesn't involve itself in the story telling as much as arnofsky's other films.

my only complaint is that the story is "revealed" to early in the movie... and about halfway through, you pretty much know what is going to happen through the second half. no real surprises. it is enjoyable watching the story playout though, the movie was very visual stimulating.

im not sure if this is, or will be, released in europe... but if you get a chance to see it, definitely do so...

one of my new favorites... any one care to discuss ???
