Book Reviews of The Fountain
Book Review: Awesome supplement to the movie.
Summary: 5 Stars
I watched the movie about 8 months ago and by the end of it I had no idea what happened. I gave it another couple months and I watched it again. It all clicked! The movie definitely ranks on my top ten movie list for its genre. What an awesome surprise it was that it was a graphic novel. After reading through it, it makes a lot of the movie make more sense. A must read if you like the movie.
Summary of The Fountain
Darren Aronofsky stunned audiences with his adventurous debut film "Pi" - which Time Out said was 'smart enough to blow your mind, with or without drugs'. His new film is a science-fiction tale that astonishes with the boldness of its ideas, and gatecrashes the senses in its execution. Set well beyond the Star-Gate of Kubrick's film, "The Fountain" is set in a spacecraft whose pilot has led two other existences: one, as a scientist striving to find a cure for his wife's terminal cancer; the other, as a Spanish conquistador in the New World striving to find the Fountain of Youth for Queen Isabella. From the home-made bespoke world of pi, Darren Aronofsky now steps onto the epic stage with a film that is bound to be one of the most original of this year.Fantasy Books
