Dentures Turning Black

A SOURCE CODE


("a time machine Ramon?)
Two days ago I went to View Source, Duncan Jones, the director of Moon a film that I liked. This too. Although sometimes seem like a long episode of Fringe or a science fiction version of Groundhog Day, the truth is that source code is a film that offers little long. Little, because we are actually in two spaces: the laboratory and the train, in which case all the action. Always the same with small changes that make progress toward a point where the target ends up being modified. But what caught my attention most was the realization that the subject of this experiment in time and in a parallel reality was Jake Gyllenhaal, the same as ten years ago starred in Donnie Darko, Richard Kelly, another leap in the history of time of parallel universes. What Kelly in the film were a fairy tale with a menacing rabbit and an incomprehensible world in Duncan Jones film is a nightmare sequences trial in 8 minutes. Both have in common, apart from the actor, an interest in escaping the most trite stories Adolescent and military. Them one after another is an exercise I recommend to who can. It is a curious experience to see Donnie Darko and his adult version embodied in Captain Stevens Colter, living a life that does not touch them, that is living beyond death.
