This week's Thursday Movie Picks is Clones/Doppelgängers
---
I love clones/doppelgänger movies, don't you? They're usually a lot of fun and tend to be a mix of sci-fi/thriller/horror. For a good number of these movies the clones/doppelgänger aspect of the movie is actually a spoiler, thus I might just be spoiling a movie or two here just by picking the movie today...so be warned. Here are three of my favourites.
It's in the title. The movie is about a young woman attempting to atone for a tragedy she caused against the backdrop of the discovery of another Earth.
The Prestige (2006)
Two rival magicians and a lot clones. A lot.
Moon (2009)
An astronaut on a solo 3 year contract work at a lunar station finds that he is not alone after an accident. Dun dun dun....

Another Earth is a film that needs to be seen by way more people than it is. Excellent film. I'm not as high on The Prestige as everyone else, but it is very well made. Moon is phenomenal. Great job!
ReplyDeleteI love all three of the movies you chose!
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen Another Earth, I'll have to look for more info on it, but both The Prestige and Moon are excellent films and good fits.
ReplyDeleteAfter THE OA I kind of wanted to see Another Earth but I haven't gotten to it yet. Moon is amazing!
ReplyDeleteI too wanted to pick The Prestige, but I didn't want to spoil it. I still haven't seen the other two but they sound good.
