The Road
Directed by John Hillcoat
A father and his son walk alone through burned America. Nothing moves in the ravaged landscape save the ash on the wind and water. It is cold enough to crack stones and, when the snow falls, it is gray. Their destination is the warmer south, although they don't know what, if anything, awaits them there. From TMDB

60 of 127 · most liked firstThe fact that the Road Runner going “meep meep” was enough to bring half a theater (including myself AND my wife) to tears should be all the evidence you need that #CoyoteVSAcme is well-loved. Go see it. Be part of the force that tells the megacorps that we understand what makes a movie worthwhile.

neutral · AI labelView post →I continue to dwell on George Miller making the entire third act of THE ROAD WARRIOR one of the wildest action sequences in film history, revolutionizing the genre, apparently the spending decades since thinking “goddamn it, that should’ve been the whole movie,” and then making that movie

neutral · AI labelView post →I feel compelled to talk about Cecil B DeMille's THE ROAD TO YESTERDAY (1925), which is an insane movie based on an insane stage play. It's a time travel romance in which two modern couples are hurtled back to Elizabethan times via a train crash and that's the more normal part of the film.

The scene with Robert Duvall as the old man captures this especially well “People were always getting ready for tomorrow. I didn’t believe in that. Tomorrow wasn’t getting ready for them” #ReadWithMeIMC #BookSky

It's so well done; the script is *chef's kiss*, the voice acting is spot on, and the animation is gorgeous. And I totally subscribe to the Miguel-and-Tulio-are-a-couple head canon.
