Critics: Check Top Critics: Check Community: x Friends: x Favorites: N/A Posted on 2/10/07 at 6:28 PM With "Far Side of the Moon", writer-director Robert Lepage uses the story of brothers Phillippe and Andre(both played by Lepage) as a springboard to also explore the history of space flight(Phillippe is writing his thesis on this while working as a telemarketer). Then, he uses parallels between the two storylines as a jumping off point for a stylish portrait of humanity's potential. The history of space flight provides an especially strong example. Space exploration started with huge potential with the Sputnik launch. Its high point is of course the landing of a man on the moon in 1969, followed by the Apollo-Soyuz mission of 1975, uniting two former adversaries but recently failures have outweighed achievements. Now, emphasis is on the potential for contacting extraterrestrials, a project that Phillippe has volunteered to help with. 0 Comments \| Post a Comment \| Send This \| Report Abuse
