WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY
GLENN CLOSE, WILLEM DAFOE, NOOMI RAPACE IN SF MOVIE
Now here's an interesting sf movie: Glenn Close has joined Willem Dafoe and Noomi Rapace in WHAT HAPPENED TO MONDAY set in a future where overpopulation and famine have forced governments to undertake a drastic One Child Policy and where seven identical sisters live a hide and seek existence pursued by the Child Allocation Bureau. The Bureau, directed by the fierce Nicolette Cayman, enforces a strict family planning agenda that the sisters outwit by taking turns assuming the identity of one person: Karen Settman. Taught by their grandfather who raised and named them — Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday — each can go outside once a week as their common identity, but are only free to be themselves in the prison of their own apartment. That is until, one day, Monday does not come home.

Snow Girl looks stunning indeed.
ReplyDeleteWhat Happened to Monday sounds interesting with the policy and the girls taking on one identity.
we do love sf movies with such intricate stories!
DeleteA little work, Glenn?
ReplyDeleteWe do love Glenn... she seems to be getting roles in sf movies lately :)
DeleteOoh, I love the premise of What Happened to Monday.
ReplyDeleteit is quite intriguing, isn't it? Although I don't really understand why would anyone be to selfish to have seven kids... If me was an emperor 90% of people wouldn't be allowed to reproduce :)
DeleteThat first one sounds intriguing. That's the problem with the government trying to control the population. It would never work.
ReplyDeleteIt sure does over in China.
DeleteI am not usually into Sci-Fi but What Happened To Monday sounds pretty good. I'll bite on that one.
ReplyDeleteI agree about the population control. So sick and tired of people adding onto the already overpopulated planet. Just because one can use their body like a clown car (ahem Duggers) doesn't mean they should.
not to mention that those who don't have children often have to pay for the kids of those who have them.... through taxes, child support, support for the pregnant ladies..... If you can't pay for your own child don't have it... it's as simple as that... And people who have more than two kids do get my nerves on edge :) The ones you mentioned by name especially... I'd put those two bastards to slave and toil on some field instead of reproducing like rabbits and filling people with their religious stupidity
