An interview with director David Cronenberg.
I am not quite sure why this is being put out as a film since this is really just a 90 minute interview with Cronenberg where he talks about a wide range of topics annd not just his life and work while sitting in a chair. If you ever wanted to know about his feelings for things like Star Trek or AI this is for you.
Actually his feelings toward AI are going to ruffle feathers. While he explains why he is in favor of it, it is still a stance that is going to piss many people off.
To be honest this is actually a great interview. This is like a version of the many talks I've seen with Cronenberg over the years. He sits and talks and holds court. While he has told some of these stories else where there is enough new material to make it worth seeing.
If I have any reservation it is the fact that since this being released as a film it's kind of hard for me to say see this in a theater for the cost of a movie theater or festival seat. At the same time I woul gladly pay to see this at a lower streaming price.
An absolute must see for fans of the director- THE FLESH AND THE SOUL is recommended.
