therealfuster Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 art, more than art imitates life. Some say that one never saw a sunset, till J. W. Turner painted one, and then people saw them in those graphic terms henceforward. During the O.J. Simpson trial, the convergences with Will's tale, "Othello" were too distinct to not notice. In the life imitates art category, read this movie synopsis and see if it reminds you of a current story in the news: A group of rich tourists take a pleasure trip to a deserted island. When departure time comes nigh, they find that one of the women in the group, has gone missing and is nowhere to be found. Without success the friends look for her all over the island, behind every nook and cranny to no avail. Days pass but the missing woman is not found.... Sound familiar? I'm sure we all know what film that is from, so I won't insult anyone's intelligence by mentioning it. What events which came after a film, seem to mirror the film's plot or sensibilities? And which film would you wish would come true, if possible? I'll vote for "2001: A Space Odyssey" [which is already behind its ETC] to hopefully occur sometime soon. Your choices?

lux0786 Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Very interesting topic. How about 2001, A Space Odyssey (1968), followed by our first trip to the moon the following year. Now if we had only gone to Jupiter ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
