Lynch was railroaded on this one, trying to fit this book into one 2 hour movie is fucking impossible.

Great film. An Urban Yasuke.

From what I understood David Lynch has admitted he can't watch Denis Villeneuve's "Dune" (2021) due to some regretd from his 1984. Lynch's version got many challenges and didn't meet expectations, causing him lasting disappointment upon himself. However, Villeneuve's "Dune" has been a praised, critically acclaimed film. It's a form of recovery; not only the dignity of Lynch's Dune but also giving the source material the respect it deserves. One must understand, that both films are like the father regrets his dream is over and living undignified but the son carries his goal vision and realised the goal, Villeneuve's offers fans and newcomers a chance to appreciate as the epic saga intended, I presume Lynch might find some solace in knowing that Dune has finally been done justice. One way or another as written. I would strongly advise watching Dune in a marathon for 45 hours, the first 4 hours are Villeneuve parts one and two. And then watch David Lynch in the next sunrise.

A brilliant man and very thought-provoking mind.

Where is this website????

This guy so good XD

so glad my 9th grade bio teacher showed us this movie back in 2014. It was my first time watching it. I recently watched it for the second time last week.

Soul mates, but for a short time.

5:12 Absolute rubbish. It was the *TWELFTH* Malpaso production.

18:00

Gattaca is the greatest film that I have ever watched. Whenever I am feeling down or demotivated it helps me get back on my feet. If Vincent the invalid can do it why can’t the rest of us also fake it until we make it?

Opinion: Brooks could of made movies like Woody Allen however chose not to...made hugely funny films but there is pathos there. Brooks saw a young Hitchcock in his gut. Look at Young Franky...he filmed it authentically...funny as hell though

Happy birthday at meryl for her 75 years from italian boy live in rome

directors who start filming with a few notes surely don't use their own money and have never used their own money to shoot a film.

this is like the best lynch interview I've ever seen

one of my favorite films of all time

dinosaur, dead, completely ridiculous😂😂😂

Gattaca is an amazing film. Much like The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, it's very underrated.

Hello from France, on of our best movie critic Jean-Baptiste Thoret made a terrific "documentary" on Cimino and the shooting of Deer Hunter (he returned at Mingo Junction where the movie was shot, a lot of interviews with the people who were on the set, the actors and old Cimino himself + interviews of Oliver Stone, Tarantino, etc...), all shot in cinemascope with beautiful photography, it's on DVD and bluray, it's called "Cimino - Un Mirage Américain"...

I thought it was Greg Hawkes from The Cars.

My all time favorite movie

The ATGC movie, Gattaca, was decades ahead of public awareness with two leading men and a leading lady of high caliber at an early point in their careers allowing them to still be affordable and deliver performances that each made their mark. It's writing achieved an almost impossible task of exploring an ethical question using the life experience of people intertwined and intersecting to expose and examine every facet of genetic engineering. Human achievement had been monetized by the corporations, captured as their asset and resource, not left to chance that an individual could disrupt their new world order. The concept of the _borrowed ladder_ alone is a stroke of genius, to go beyond the "divide between privileged and everyday people" and "some will expect to be privileged" such as the petri dish policeman brother, but end up in humdrum lives. To explore the societal depravity of imposing genetic imprimaturs of privilege and entitlement, while exploring the practical reality still enforced today: meritocracy is a tiny niche of luck and indulgence. Moving up the ladder is a privilege of connections and wealth, not actual achievement, and ironically, the automation of privilege through genetic engineering created the loophole in the system to allow the great overachievers to strive to be rewarded for their unaided accomplishments. I watch Gattaca to see different facets of its jewelry, from the exciting plot twists and human storyline, to the suspense of crimes and sexual tension, and honor amongst thieves, to the careful psychological analysis of every person impacted in their own way by the cruel precision of an unnatural selection determining their life. Sometimes I watch, just to marvel at the prescience to imagine a future world of electric retro mobiles from Citroën and Studebaker, solar fields, and the oppressed, sterile lives of conformity under corporations. Yet not a single phone or communicator or AI or AR or robot … simple paper printouts, rockets blasting off, keyboards clacking, people lined up in their cubicles, walking in obedient lines through checkpoints, paying the price every day, stabbed and bled, for a corporate fear of the unknown and uncontrolled element: the risk of a natural human achieving what they are not allowed to achieve.

“I never saved anything for the swim back“ to me implies “I won because I did what the gene editing algorithm couldn’t predict.“ We may make designer babies LESS ADAPTED to the real world. Sort of like how sickle cell is needed to survive in some parts of Africa. Editing out so-called imperfections may actually doom our descendants. I also love how this film shows how a society can be completely wrong about something, no matter how advanced it thinks it is. And that ignorance can still crush individuals and their potential.

I love Gattaca. Snow Falling On Cedars. EH has picked many great projects.

Let me riddle you this? Is there a noble thief ? Are they irresistible to women? Of course they are! Just ask Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman. Gattica is an outlier because it's message is spiritual. And its likely why Mr Hawke was cagey and ambivalent with his answers. The message is far deeper than the oversimplification of another nuanced tortoise vs the hare fable; because its deeper meaning lies not in the pursuit of aesthetic perfection but rather in the world of spirit - of will and willing. These things are the dimension of human personality found in the world of thought - they are also dimensions of the soul. So this film goes beyond mere physical beauty and perfection, which are concrete and tangible things, to the world of spirit, thought and willing - all intangible things and yet with out them a body will never achieve its full potential; because the will to drive mind and body to its fullest potential is either lacking or flawed. This was the difficult challenge of screenwriting something so abstract as the power of willing using concrete media like film. Niccol did a brilliant job writing the script and directing. How far may mankind go in pursuit of aesthetic of perfection before it becomes unethical? Vincent's character answers this riddle very well. The film broaches the philosophy of Personalism as elaborated by French Philosopher Jacques Maritan and his wife Raïssa.

I first watched Gattaca when I was around 13 and I was so intrigued by it. It left an impression on me of what if this film is a reflection of what society will become. But its the perseverance from Vincent in a society that shunned him that kept me mesmerized while watching. I even felt like Director Josef knew all along who he was and his limitations, which is why he killed the other director. I was at the edge of my seat, because I really wanted him to make it, when Dr Lamar seemed like the last obstacle but turned a blind eye, it was reminder of the faith in humanity. Not everything involving space has to be Star Wars and Star Trek.

Digital? On my fucking telephone? Get real

Gattaca is now. Wealthy people are a seperate species of homosapiens. They are far superior to the little people.

I watch this movie every year… for many reasons…

Saw Amadeus at least 13 times in my life... F, Murray is the MF 'BOMB'..... Love him fosho! Scarface my Favorite of him.... Only wish he could of been in more flicks throughout the years

Being completely honest it's hands down my favorite film of all time. It's not perfect but it's truly beautiful and great. The score, the cinematography, the acting, the writing all mesh together so well.

Maravilha!

Meryl Streep Fenomen Women ❤❤❤❤❤

Haha, ive made it 1st to the comment section!

why do I get the eerie feeling this is Martin Short doing a character? :)

Basically what he’s saying (in a polite way) is: we’ve got new technology right? SO WHY NOT FU*KING USING IT!

Absolutely love this movie. Cool af.

Eric Idle just put out a Tweet saying that he's broke and the Python money dried up years ago. Uh.......what? I don't think Terry is lying, though.

The very same illness took my mother the same way

What I take away from this is, thank the Lord for parking lots.

YOU WERE A TOMATO!

Straight to favourites. Straight to motherfucking favourites. ❤

Gattaca is one of the greatest films of all time! Timeless!

It was a wonderful movie. Intelligent. Thought provoking. Great look to it that stood out. One of my favourites. When I saw it I thought it was ahead of its time.

Teaches you how to rise above people's expectations to follow your own dreams. No matter what your DNA 🧬, or any label the world tries to lay on you. Hope & fear, can push & pull but if you trust your gut intuition 90% of the time it will put you on the right path. 🪶💕❤️💕🌿🕊️🫶

Amen. Great scene and film ending.

Kubrick était unique et le meilleur cinéaste de tous les temps, pour moi le génie du cinéma au même titre que Mozart en musique classique... Pollack a dit le mot, ses films sont hypnotiques))

Tape is great. Ethan plays a bad guy in that.

Gattaca os one my favorite films of all time. Thought provoking and visionary. I watched it so many times as a teen

Am I the only one that heard someone's gut rumble at 1:12?
