Future's So Bright




I've read too many well-written reviews of Children of Men in last few days to take the time and post, a worthy, one of my own. All I can say is the film is frightening in it's portrayal of the dystopia that could very well become our world in the year 2027. Besides the effortless straight-man performance by Clive Owen, the brilliant tracking shot towards the end, and the beautifully bleak cinematography, I can't think of a movie in recent times that has used music so well. I won't reveal any spoilers, but I actually cried the second time Franco Battiato's version of "Ruby Tuesday" was played.
