CULT MOVIE REVIEW: 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)

2007-11-14 09:27:00 by John Kenneth Muir in John Kenneth Muir's Reflections on Film/TV

Norths score is in two movements, reflecting the first and second...

2008-03-18 19:09:42 by Jeffrey Overstreet in
 
...Odyssey The best extant commentary on 2001: A Space Odyssey from an intentionally theological perspective hails from the conclusion of C.S.
