Children of Men (second viewing)

Posted by Duilawyer (A) on January 8, 2007 at 07:51:52

Liked it much more, since I could make out more of the words, through the accents. This dirctor films the best battle scenes ever, better than Kubrick. The one remarkable scene, where it appears to be one non-stop seven minute cut, is nearly unbelievable.

There are two cuts at least, one when he runs into the building, and one when he and the pregnanat woman are huddling, he to the right of the window, her to the left, and an explosion goes off just outside their window. I detect a third when he jumps on the bus. BUT that explosion that leaves red spots on the camera lens, what an idea, brilliant!! Too bad they are perfect red circles, if its supposed to be blood they would not have been clear nor perfectly round.

I also was amazed by the wire guided rockets fired from the buildings against the British troops. "No tanks in the city" is the lesson from Chechneya.
