Never Let Me Go
Posted a review on Amazon for the script/film Never Let Me Go. Here are my thoughts:
I was ill prepared for the strong effect this film/screenplay would have on me.
It is rare that you go to the cinema and are confronted with a film that forces you to rethink your life, your cosy existence and the moral framework within which you live.
I feel this film/script has been let down by the marketing. It's been marketed as a love story. Many men I know have been put off from seeing it because they think it's a chick flick. Nothing could be further from the truth.
There is a (compelling) love story but the premise is much larger than that.
This film asks what is it to be human? At what cost life? And at what cost death.
