Thinking about the
future have been a constant act of West people. In the Cinema it doesn’t
different. Many films in all his history had approach this theme. Some them
were been classical. Indeed, this is the case of the Stanley Kulbrick’s “2001
– a space odyssey”. This is an 1968 epic fiction film. Its sixties years
store about the life in the future 2001.
The main question into the film is the
human relationship to technology. Two astronauts is going to the Mercury planet
in a space navy governor by a computer called Hal. The space adventures had
been good until a problem was had identify by controller room in the Earth. The
program computer had have with a tilt. Though, Hal, an intelligent and
sensitive computer that govern all the things and acts into de the navy, don’t
declare that him were a hard difficult; Hal, however, declared that him hadn’t
anything problem and which difficult were by the humans, the Earth’s
controllers or the astronauts. Well, indeed this is a metaphor from human life
and its relationship with technology since the early times of men. We would
been slavers both of the knowledge technics and technologies things. The first
technology object, perhaps, a staff of bone or wood, which changed our
ancestral in man, also made us a kind of animals that had been extremely
dependent of technology. The great worth of 2001 a space odyssey is the fact of
director´s were back to the dawn of the man for tell us about this thrilling
stuff connection.
I think this is one of
most important and cult movie of the history. They special effects are crazy
and amazing and they inspired the new generation of directors films about
science fiction, who renovate the science fiction’ movies in seventies. The
Kulbrick’s creativity products a new paradigm for the films of mass. And A
Space odyssey deserves to be seen by audiences all the age. It is a perfect
exhibition of the way of cinema tell a history, the pioneering technical
effects and the connection between images and sounds is so perfect. It almost
does not have dialogues, they are minimal, but the images and the sounds talk
us more best.
On the other hand, pay
attention, the 2001 film is exceptionally ambiguous and slowly. It couldn’t be
different, symbolically you’ll watch the long Earth odyssey in space, according
to view of the writers of this script. Good movie session.
