Soylent Green Opening Titles

Headlines today discuss the growing possibility of energy and food problems that were first brought to world attention in the 1970's. Films like Soylent Green helped to illustrated the grim future that could potentially befall us if we don't take these problems seriously and change our destructive behavior.
Soylent Green was produced by MGM in 1973, and stars Charlton Heston and Edward G. Robinson in his last role. It's a powerful film, which you can buy online at Amazon.com or the MGM website.

[@rivaridge7211]

It was my late Dad (who passed in 2002) who first made me aware of this great film. One year (in the mid-1990's) I gave him a VHS tape of "Soylent Green," for his birthday and he just beamed over the idea that he could watch it again, whenever he wanted. A happy memory for me - Cheers to all!

[@antonysoprano7989]

exactly the same memory of my father who made me see this film in the 80s, this credits always gives me chills and immense nostalgia.

[@Ootgreet1]

2022 NYC, everyone wearing face masks, homeless everywhere. Some things never change! The transitions in the music are incredible. The slow paced "Waltons" rural era leading to the first motorcars and a few picnickers riding in the country at first, then the speeded up era of early 20th century prosperity and great cities, then the jazzy music that heralds freeways, millions of cars, and the world of the 70s. Builds to a crescendo to ecological and industrial collapse... then the music breaks to a slower tempo "oh, well, here we are." A masterpiece.

[@kyrkosekaterinaris1328]

I love how the music starts off really nice and calm (representing the idyllic life of old times), then gets more and more chaotic (representing modern life) and then calm again, to represent a future where the planet is calm again - because there is hardly any human life left, except we have also left behind devastation. Such a striking opening sequence! The first time I saw this was in a compilation of the best opening titles of all time, years ago, and I totally didn't expect to see Soylent Green at the end. One of my favourite of all time too.

I can never get over how devastating this opening sequence is. I'm from Southern California, and this is exactly what's happened there---a once fertile, pristine region now completely overrun with asphalt, traffic, congestion, and chaos. Of course, this makes modern developers and realtors into some of the most evil, anti-social people in American history.

Anyone who thinks that living outside in nature is a solution to pollution is insane. The only solution is for humanity to get off the planet.

Before those greedy developers can strip a plot of land for development, they need PERMITS! It's the so called "planners" in local governments who gave them those permits to destroy our woods, praries, streams & hills, those are the people who need to get run up a flag pole by their necks!

[@bandersnatchbigfootexplore549]

The amazing thing about this opening is it points out a time when humans lived amongst nature which is something that humans were doing since the beginning of human existence til the industrial revolution in the late 1800s which makes this opening both beautiful and dreadfully sad.

Creating a warzone in many places, from North, East and South of Ukraine. Mariupol (and Kharkiv and more), now in total ruins, razed to the ground, by lethal and unrelenting indiscriminate bombardment, from Russian Murderers, firing from the outskirts of this helpless city and starving citizens under siege. Reading the news of the terrible Russian atrocities which have occurred in Bucha, one of many occupied smalls town, captured and occupied by Russian troops 4 or 5 weeks ago. Bucha, situated just outside Kyiv, has many mass graves filled with ordinary citizens, also sadly one dug grave holding the Lady Mayor of Bucha and her family tortured and killed. Ruzzia has now turned tail in the North back to Belarus, and their crimes in Bucha are now being revealed, by the Ukrainian liberating Army.

1:45 here you can briefly hear a motif derived from the first movement of Beethoven’s 6th Symphony _Pastrorale_ - an obviously ironic touch and also the piece of music used for the final credits after Heston’s iconic last line; this serves to thematically bookend the film. One of the best uses of montage in cinematic history and possibly the best usage of montage and score together. Edit: Obviously Beethoven’s 6th is also used in another prominent scene in this film but I don’t want it to be spoiled for those who haven’t seen it yet. I guess it also counts as foreshadowing.
