Silent Running

Paperback | English

By (author): Mark Kermode

A visually stunning and heartfelt riposte to the emotional sterility of Kubrick''s 2001: A Space Odyssey, Douglas Trumbull''s eco-themed Silent Running (1972) became one of the defining science-fiction films of the seventies. Bruce Dern excels as lonely hero Freeman Lowell, cast adrift in deep space with three robotic ''Drones'' who become his ''amazing companions'' on a journey ''beyond imagination''. Mark Kermode, writing on his favourite science fiction film of all time, traces Trumbull''s sentimental masterpiece from its roots in the counter-culture of the sixties to its enduring appeal as a cult classic in the 21st century. Drawing on a new interview with Trumbull, Kermode examines both the technical and thematic elements of this uniquely moving space adventure, which continues to be mirrored and imitated by film-makers today. This special edition features original cover artwork by Olly Moss. See more
