Tonight's viewing.
I will try very hard not to go into linguistic anthropology nerd mode afterwards but I can't promise anything. #NowShowing#Arrival#SciFi#WordNerd
Denis Villeneuve's Arrival was released 7 years ago today.
I love this "close encounter".
"A linguist is recruited by the army to communicate with an extraterrestrial life-form after twelve mysterious spaceships land around the world." #scifi#arrival#movie#spaceship#alien#villeneuve
Just finished watching Arrival, and it hit me in the feels the way it always does. I've seen it at least half a dozen times but there are always new levels to it, every time. What an absolutely incredible film. #Film#JustWatchIt#Arrival#SciFi
Been working my way through the works of one of the greatest film directors working today - #DenisVilleneuve. I’ve seen the major Hollywood works like #Dune, #BladeRunner2049, #Arrival, and #Sicario, as well as his smaller films like #Prisoners, and even his lesser known films like #Enemy and even #Polytechnique… but today I watched #Incendies… and… uhh… Jesus Christ. What a fucked-up yet powerful condemnation of the horrors that war creates not only directly, but so often just in its wake.
One of the best movies in recent times, based upon one of the best sci-fi novellas of recent times, soundtracked by the saddest song in recent times. What an awesome movie Arrival turned out to be. Enjoy!
