Director : Darren Aronofsky
Running Time : 97 mins
Three stories, each telling of a man (Jackman) who is trying to obtain the eternal love of a woman (Weisz); in the past the woman is a queen, and the man a Conquistador searching for the tree of life in order to free her from pativity; in the present he is a doctor trying to find a cure for his cancer stricken wife; and in the future the man is a space traveller trying to seek out a dying star.
This is an odd little film, which tells three parallel stories of the past, present, and future. There are some amazing practical effects, and it’s worth watching just for them, but the story is a little disjointed in a cultish way, a bit like The Nines. The overall present story is a decent story of love and loss, but sometimes the past and future stories actually got in the way rather than enhanced it.
