The Collapse (2019)
7/10
The beginning of the end in only one long take
14 November 2019
Warning: Spoilers
I am afraid that this kind of films and series will be here more and more in the future, as long as our world will continue to exist. The spirit of this no future thema series reminds me a French movie which I saw last week: L'HEURE DE LA SORTIE; The third episode of this show: THE AIRFIELD is so immoral with the lead bad guy making it at the end. The acting are not always excellent, but mostly OK enough for my taste. Audiences can easily feel empathy for most of the characters. But this is a true depressing series. US Tv industry would never make this kind of stuff, where there is no happy end at all. I love that. Each episode is made on the ONE TAKE mode. Very perilous to make, because one false move in terms of synchronism means to start all over again. This kind of situation, the end of the world, the civilization, is not impossible but fortunately highly improbable. But, if, IF that happened, I am not sure that, in reality, people would not behave like the characters here. I am not sure they would, but not sure either that they would not....
