The Pestle: In-depth Movie Talk, No Fluff | Film Review | Spoilers

Ep 13: “Sunshine”

94 min • 20 september 2017

In this episode we discuss Danny Boyle’s scifi film “Sunshine” and discuss:

  • the colors of Sunshine;
  • Danny Boyle’s style vs David Fincher;
  • the film’s theme;
  • foreshadowing;
  • and much more.

Truthfully, I can only say I was driven to make the film, that these images came to me and I did not question them. My only defence is: ‘Forgive me, for I know not what I do.’ I am the wrong person to ask what the film means or why it is as it is. It is a bit like asking the chicken about the chicken soup.– Lars von Trier discussing “Antichrist”

Notes & References:
Danny Boyle had the cast live together in “student digs” prior to filming
