Primer: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0390384/ http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0390384/
(Interesting not least because its budget was about 50p)
- lomnakkus 10y agoIt's a REALLY confusing film, but absolutely brilliant in the way that it shows just how confusing a world with time travel would be[1]. The way everything escalates in the latter half of the film is insane. For a "simple" explanation of the plot, see [2]. Since this analysis was done by a third party, it's obviously hard to be sure that this is fully correct, but it at least seems very close. [1] For anyone able to observe the multiple time lines, obviously. :) [2] https://i0.wp.com/media2.slashfilm.com/slashfilm/wp/wp-content/images/primer-chart.jpg https://i0.wp.com/media2.slashfilm.com/slashfilm/wp/wp-conte...

- FeepingCreature 10y agoAlso recommended: Primer commentary track. Run it beside the movie, and it'll drop in to explain things as they happen. https://qntm.org/commentary https://qntm.org/commentary
