Filmdation, Friday 30th July 2010
Jul 30th
The July Filmdation is on Friday 30th July!
The film choice is The Road and was chosen by Iain McColl.
The Road stars Viggo Mortensen and is directed by John Hillcoat. It is based on a 2006 novel by American writer Cormac McCarthy. It is a post-apocalyptic tale of a journey taken by a father and his young son over a period of several months, across a landscape blasted by an unnamed cataclysm that destroyed civilization and, apparently, almost all life on earth. The novel was awarded the 2007 Pulitzer Prize for fiction.
STOP PRESS! Apparently, the Road is too depressing for this exact moment, so Filmdation will instead be a viewing of that sartorial classic Rambo: First Blood instead. Philistines…
