A really interesting film about people coping with the end of the world. Slow paced compared to modern films, it delivers its message slowly, easing up to major changes. A fairly good narrative, and I enjoyed watching it. It had impact, at least with me)
I love that about older films, the pacing tends to open itself to more emotional investment if you’re in the right mood it can be such a refreshing change.
I agree, getting invested in the pacing and the environmental telling can have huge benefits. But I wont lie, I found myself reaching for my phone a few times, room for improvement

Check out Threads if you haven’t already 👍
It’s pretty startling now, imagine what thr reaction was on release!
Fred Asatire is my favorite actor, so funny to see him as a scientist.

I really like the fact everyone took it seriously, there wasn’t over the top drama, or adventure like in many modern films.
There is still time… brother.
