Another Earth
I have always believed that the best movies are ones you discover when you weren’t looking for them. Another Earth, the movie, was one of those surprisingly quirky, thoughtful, and heart moving tales of people finding themselves in difficult situations. It is packed mildly in science fiction genre packaging – but it is a tale of young idealistic hope and promise that is immediately slapped down with the existential reality of life and tragedy. All of that happens within the first 10 minutes – and the rest of the movie is a tale of redemption, self -discovery, forgiveness, reconciliation, hope, starting over and sacrificial living.
It is artfully done - slower and thoughtful, philisophical. If you want action - this is not the movie for you. If you want a kind hearted movie that is also realistically painful and full of redemption and hope - then you will like this movie.
There is no nudity or foul language but some suggestively intimate moments - and an attempted suicide.
If you don’t want any more spoilers stop reading now.
