Duncan Jones and Sam Rockwell: Moon

[@jolagojo]

Its a genius movie masterpiece it was independent, low budget in filmed in 33 days. There were barely any actors, and for most of the time all in 1 room. This is my absolute favorite movie of all time. You really should watch it.

[@spacepeanut5723]

Reading your comment and it sounds like you're describing a terribly shitty movie. jk

[@geoffhill6992]

its a fucken awesome movie loved it but very sad

[@imprezachic]

i really enjoyed the movie. i watched it w/ my father last night and on the way home we were talking about how we've never seen anything like it before! BRAVO!

[@finbarrodonovan2942]

Absolutely brilliant film

[@BarneyBhoy88]

Great that Duncan Jones calls it "our" film at the start his idea was superb but not many actors could have pulled it off like Sam Rockwell did it's also very cool that Jones wrote this specifically to work with Rockwell

[@keith14452]

Best low budget Sci-Fi movie ever made! Sams acting was awesome! He shoulda won the first award for true believable character, care about, cant take your eyes off of! Brilliant film in every area!

[@widerling]

One of the rawest,most opened interview have seen in a long time.Just breaks the science down in the "making of"without the layers of prentention.nice one!Double thumbs up for sharing this little gem.

[@samwallaceart288]

This movie surpassed my expectations. Most sci-fi movies would save the "oh shit!" moment for the final act and play up the mystery elements, and probably would have inserted more hallucinations and an unreliable narrator; this movie just straight-up puts its twist at the end of the first act; and oddly enough, the story is just getting started and the movie decides to really explore Sam's reaction to the twist and the tension is in how *he* reacts to it, not some plot McGuffin. Also, I really like the way they played it in terms of the humor. Rather than being over the top instead its just ... awkward; but Sam tries to play things cool and be cool about it; it's awkward, funny, very sad, baked in buckets of relatability. Sam Rockwell was the perfect casting for this movie. Duncan and Sam, thank you so much for making this movie the way you did. It is simultaneously the least marketable and the most brilliant hardcore sci-fi film in decades.

[@NorthWriter]

Awesome film. I saw it once a year ago, and I still think about it all the time.

[@78docha]

its such a sad movie... and sam rockwell is absolutely BRILLIANT in it!

[@Jimmy4100]

Great commentary on the humor part. It's so subtle and so important. I had to watch it three times before my heart cracked, then it shattered... destroyed. Timeless story, flawless directing, sublime performance, stunning soundtrack. Truly a classic.

[@Djankie49]

I heard that "Source Code " by Duncan Jones is too a really good movie im looking forward to this guy no movie had ever brought tears in my eyes like " Moon "

[@leonoel42]

This is way better than Avatar. Yes the FX are brilliant but it left me cold emotionally. This film connects on that level. It just amazing they did it so cheaply and in such a short timsescale (33 days)

[@thealgaehunter]

I just got back from seeing this film. It's absolutely incredible. Sam Rockwell proves once again that he is a fantastic actor.

[@Luchkow]

agreed. i was baffled by how sad it was... didn't expect that.

[@donald386]

I saw this movie at Sundance. It was incredible.

[@mali4547]

I FOUND THIS MOVIE IN 2017, AND SEVERAL TIME HAVE WATCH. BUT ONE MESSAGE IS GIVING US THIS MOVIE, THAT I WANT DISCOVER. BEST MOVIE.

[@RileyBanksWho]

Ali ibrahim what the fuck are you saying?

[@78docha]

he absolutely does! there were moments when i just cudn't believe tht it is in fact the same person who's playing those 2 characters! (not 2 spoil anything =D) they were so different! amazing!

[@Schmidteren]

Amazing movie. One of my favorites! Sadly not enough people know about it. Or are instead insterested in mind numbing stuff like Michael Bay explosive popcorn action, no brain mayhem. :/

[@RileyBanksWho]

Schmidteren You seem to know it all don't ya bud?

[@lexiadisia]

I'm really looking forward to seeing this. A great interview, thanks for putting this up.

[@eviola11]

I don't even see the oscars as the ultimate achievement or an indicator of greatness anymore. When a movie that got BRUTAL reviews like Extremely Loud, Incredibly Close can get a nom for best picture, gotta question it.

[@Tes80]

Can't wait to see the movie! I'm wondering when we'll be able to see it inEurope!

[@wyng303]

such a good film....... loved it.

[@alcaminhante]

Brilliant movie in all aspects and then more. Among the very best sci fi ever.

[@UrbanSwagger]

Saturn 3, Alien, Outland, Dark Star. I loved those movies growing up and will definitely want to see Moon. Sorry I missed the SXSW screening.

[@DMalltheway]

Moon is better than Interstellar

[@NormAppleton]

Faint fucking praise

[@sazerac1]

I agree completely. His father didn't pay for it. Sony and Sting's wife, Trudy, and another corporation are listed as the people that provided the funding. He has directed music videos and commercials for years in London and has a film degree from the US.

[@ibladesi]

Gonna parrot every post in here and say that this was one of my favorite movies, if not the favorite. Has great replay value too. Can't really imagine that it'd be very popular with the female genpop.

[@Tontto]

O/ Female here who likes this movie A LOT ! Just saying so there would be lesser people who think this wouldn't be popular for the female genpop. My cousin works as a producer and said they send different movie trailers for men and women in facebook.. which is.. really stupid.

[@TotalDoomsayer]

@goldenmarin Hell yeah man, easily one of the greatest films I have ever seen. Blew me away, and the soundtrack was epic.

[@RyanGiggsOBE]

one of the greatest movies ever made. Huge of Rockwell and cannot wait to see what Duncan Jones has planned for the future. Still cant believe he turned down Man Of Steel

[@thewomandirector]

MOON is a terrific film - go see it!

[@generalcircle]

@Shipgate Whenever he has an interview regarding Moon, he praises Rockwell religiously. He says "Sam Rockwell" very often in these interviews too.

[@GreeenGiantt]

this movie was amazing!!!!!!!!

[@90mv]

awesome film

[@AmyK007]

If these two don't win Oscars there is something seriously wrong.

[@sazerac1]

Young "Joe" was in Berlin with his dad and Iggy Pop during those years. He is excited to get back to film his new film, MUTE. Sam will have a cameo part.

[@JM4EDR]

Gosh, don't they look alike? Duncan Jones is such a lovely man, you wouldn't think he's the son of a famous person. Just goes to show, they're not all spoilt brats.

[@liorap5636]

Duncan Jones is David Bowie's son. And, was called Zowie Bowie for a lot of his childhood. The zowie bowie that comes up is probably a Bowie impersonator/performer.

[@lebrongarnett33]

thx alot

[@AmyK007]

@Schmidteren They didn't even get nominated? Then then "system" is corrupt. Getting an Oscar should be decided by the people. After all it's us who pay to see the film.

[@highlander2121]

Can I ask you a thing? When exactly the press announcement of the movie happened?

[@lebrongarnett33]

does anyone know where you can find it online to watch

[@hotboyzbryana]

oscar is deserved

[@bennihana123]

Under related videos, is the guy in the 'Zowie Bowie' video the same guy? Duncan Jones and Zowie Bowie seem like completely different people.

[@jackyeats88]

I thought that It was pretty good. I'm glad I went to see it.

[@buzzardbeatniks]

No, not the same guy, Zowie Bowie is some vegas act thing - very strange choice of name, I wonder how Duncan Jones feels about it.

[@ForeverBennett]

I thought it was highly overrated, personally. But I was impressed with the level of production value with the budget they had. It was definitely Rockwell's best performance.

[@m0cha.]

@johnnythunders78 I'm guessing you're joking... But, if not, you're wrong. He's there for 3 years to mine Helium-3 and send it back to Earth as a clean alternative energy source. He isn't an alternate Sam, he's a clone. That's why they bring up clones so many times, and why they also go down into "The nursery" and find all the clones. The reason the contract is only 3 years long is because that's how long clones last. If you don't believe me, then look it up on Wikipedia, or some other place.

[@johnnythunders78]

They weren't clones, they were alternate versions of Sam Bell from other dimensions. That was the whole point of his mission on the moon, multiverse research.

[@ygustavo]

do you know where i can get the soundtrack????

[@dawnofdarken]

can someone spoil the movie? i noticed the name of the moon base is called sarang which in korean means love. So why is it called that and what is the real deal? Yeah i like spoilers

[@keeza333]

thats a pretty good movie . These two look like brothers i think.

[@LittleD3]

there not. Zowie Bowie took that name because he was a fan of Duncans dad.

[@ygustavo]

@BasiliosCousin thanks bro.

[@chrismineo1788]

Silent running cool flick

[@EchoBoomer1987]

Weres Sam Rockwell 2?

[@HAL--vf6cg]

Echoboomer1987 only one made it back home bro...

[@ndubbleemo]

fuckin' awesome movie. and thats all there is to it.

[@ThisHandleIsInteresting]

Psst, Toot.. Give ya a nickle for det moon pie... XD

[@kromed01]

@AmyK007 They didnt win any Oscars. They should have won best actor and best director.

[@generalcircle]

Duncan Jones has a serious obsession with Sam Rockwell when it comes to Moon.

[@pureafricanqueen]

@AmyK007 They didn't.

[@kromed01]

@AmyK007 they didnt and I agree with you. They should have won best director and best actor.

[@sabbathian]

Filmed in 33 days )

[@ThisHandleIsInteresting]

AYE, IT'S GOT F***ING ROCKWELL AND KEVIN SPACEY IN IT YET NO WIN!!!?? (even though Spacey is a robot but a damn cool one). The current Oscar judges or whoever judges films from there in terms of movies like Moon needs to resign -_- At least Rango won best animated film, that's only thing I praise from the Oscars about last year XD

[@MyUsername156]

yep, bafta for best debut.. but nowhere near as much attention as I would have liked to see it get.

[@penguinboy81]

" you can ad-lib, but you gotta know the ad-lib ahead of time " Duhhhhhh!

[@DJOfRadioValinor]

He has his dad's pixie ears and nose, thats it, the rest is angela's.

[@chrismineo1788]

son of Bowie

[@robbrody53]

WHY YOU DO THIS?!

[@charlesz5949]

recorded via potato cam

[@ThisHandleIsInteresting]

Did Moon even win ANYTHING????
