Exclusive Sunshine Trailer

i blagged a press screening of this last week, and i can tell you it's damn amazing.

without a doubt... DO NOT see this on some crappy small screen...You need the scale of it. The production values are something else...But it's not some 'empty' blockbuster like half the crap out there..
It's definitely not another disaster movie..Much more in line with Alien etc...Classy as hell. Some seriously thought provoking stuff, not so much the science (although that is interesting), but more the human interaction stuff.

I am a big danny boyle supporter, although i wasn't a massive fan of the ending of 28DL..i still rate it highly as a film...Some of the set pieces (particularly the intro sequence in London and the tower block chase) were incredible...

As with sunshine, the thought-provoking stuff was actually quite early on. A lot of the same themes of claustrophobia and harsh-moral-decision-for-the-greater-good are present in both sunshine & 28DL

I mean ask yourself...Could you kill a loved one to save the rest of mankind? (that's the sort of thing the crew in sunshine face)

It's a simple, but genuinely intriguing moral dilemma...and the film's full of them

trust me - you have to see this one

;)
 
thanks for that

just seen a review on aintitcool from a screening here in london a couple of days ago:

"Having had the pleasure to catch a screening of Danny Boyle
 
oh nice...Just saw this: http://www.sunshinemoments.co.uk/

Some lovely pix in there....



Also, interview with boyle in the guardian;

interesting to read this:


"We had this argument in the bar last night. He said it's absolutely critical we use nuclear power and Cillian said, 'What about the Irish sea? It's so polluted and there's all these leukaemia clusters.' And Cox went, 'If we use nuclear power we can give light and food to a million people in Africa and you're worried about a few hundred people in Ireland?'"

I'm more and more convinced that Boyle's principle interests lie in these human dilemmas, and his films are just different backdrops to explore what is basically the same idea each time
 
I really can't wait to see this film!!! It looks so good!

It's also great that we finally can see a good looking film like this before the Americans! It isn't released there until Autumn/Winter 2007.
