A fun movie I’ve watched last year that involves Omega, boxes, $1.000.000, choice under uncertainty, overstepping ethical injunctions and some common problems with utilitarianism.
It’s more concerned with leaving the viewer hooked and mystified than with preserving even a shred of coherency, but hey.
Oh, and it’s by the director of Donnie Darko. Haven’t seen that one, but sure heard a lot about it.
I quite liked this one (the Box). It does decohere some towards the end, but I quite enjoy the plot layering, where just as you think you have it figured out, the next layer is unveiled. Donnie Darko is one of my favorites, but for some reason I never managed to look up the director, so thanks for the recommend.
