Interstellar will forever and always be my favourite film. Whenever I need a reality check I watch this film. Love is the answer and it’s what connects us all. And ofc the scoring/music by Hans Zimmer makes me feel alive. ✨
Just rewatched Interstellar and I’m feeling poetic and melancholic tonight so here are some of my thoughts
-I’ll never get over how Brand says “We love people who died…where’s the social utility in that?” and she has to explain to Cooper that despite not fully understanding what love is we should trust it and he end up abandoning his skepticism about love and fully believing in its capability to withstand the terrifying bleak darkness of black holes because it’s never love & emotions vs science & ego (or else we’d get Oppenheimer)
-The 5th dimensional beings not being able to pinpoint an exact point of reference in time to communicate with Murph but Cooper could because love transcends time and space and his relationship with Murph is the only invariant throughout all the possibilities and the beginning and end of his equation and to brush this scene off as “complicated” is so unfair. It’s beautiful and human and I’m about to cry again thinking about it.
- Siken’s “Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story.” and Cooper’s “ The only way humans have ever figured out of getting somewhere is to leave something behind” Cooper, Prof Brand and Donald left then all of humanity left and as heartbreaking as it is that we’re destined to always leave there’s always beauty whenever we return
And also “It was you. You were my ghost” is so optimistic in a way because even when people leave us they never truly fully do, parts of them will always stay with us and beyond the film intricacies it just boils down to these simplistic sentiments no one ever leaves love never perishes
Y'all I watched Interstellar yesterday. I finally did it. I thought inception was amazing but God nothing can top Interstellar for me rn!! IT WAS SO AMAZING OMG. SO overwhelmingly emotionally charged, GENIUS, fantastic, fabulous, otherworldly it was! I loved it so much!
Cooper finally meeting his daughter when she was about to die... Ik it was supposed to be somewhat of a reunion but I felt too agonised because finally he meets her daughter, finally she meets her DAD and then she's going to die. i felt for her, for them both then. i thought it was tragic, but at least she had family then :')
I NEED TO SEE THE SCENES WHERE COOPER FINDS AMELIA, HELLO, CHRISTOPHER NOLAN YOU ABSOLUTE GENIUS.
