Duncan Jones and Sam Rockwell: Moon

[aleksoctop]

Excellent movie. Excellent people.

[MsGagan123]

two genius

[NorthWriter]

Awesome film. I saw it once a year ago, and I still think about it all the time.

[LauVMz]

My favourtie Sam's movie... Love you Sam !

[AcerbusLumenis]

I've discovered this movie by accident, and I couldn't believe how underated this movie was, that deep psychology and tension keept me under shock for a while after whatching it ... Sam was brilliant ...

[squiffydoodle]

Duncan looks great, not skinny like his dad

[dnabg]

I heard that "Source Code " by Duncan Jones is too a really good movie im looking forward to this guy no movie had ever brought tears in my eyes like " Moon "

[nils4545]

Hollywood doesn't like films that goes against the grain. If this film did some advertising today in Europe, it will do very good. The atmosphere, the acting, the music and story is a perfect balance. However, it's still a film that you only can watch once, and you kinda feel happy when it's over, because it was quite sad really :|.

[Jimmy4100]

Great commentary on the humor part. It's so subtle and so important. I had to watch it three times before my heart cracked, then it shattered... destroyed.

Timeless story, flawless directing, sublime performance, stunning soundtrack. Truly a classic.

[GrantLeBon]

Best sci-fi movie since Blade Runner!

[Shipgate]

This movie is like my favorite kind of science fiction. No action in it whatsoever. But this is why this movie won't be as widely recognized as it should.

[IprototypeI]

I really like how Duncan is so humble as to the way he always recognize Sam's help and collaboration in making the movie. He is definitely as far as he could be from being cocky or stuck up.

[ForeverBennett]

I thought it was highly overrated, personally. But I was impressed with the level of production value with the budget they had. It was definitely Rockwell's best performance.

[generalcircle]

Duncan Jones has a serious obsession with Sam Rockwell when it comes to Moon.

[Shipgate]

@generalcircle

How so?

[generalcircle]

@Shipgate

Whenever he has an interview regarding Moon, he praises Rockwell religiously. He says "Sam Rockwell" very often in these interviews too.

[bumermerc]

Terrific film. Should get a lot more recognition.

[emoempress143]

so who is robin chalk?

[keeza333]

thats a pretty good movie . These two look like brothers i think.

[AdognamedOp]

I for one welcome the obscurity of 'Moon'. Let it stay down low. We'll only appreciate it more, in the years ahead, when it hasn't been over analyized and -god willing- remade.

[Nushicat]

Watched this film a few days ago. It was so beautiful. They were robbed! But I also think Moon should have been advertised more.

[Schmidteren]

@Nushicat Sony didn't back up their movie, those fuckers!... Movie is a masterpiece, nothing less!

[wyng303]

such a good film....... loved it.

[74gore]

5 MILLION DOLLAR MOVIE, TAKES 33 DAYS TO FILM, TOP MOVIE ON MY LIST!!NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALLED A MOVIE!!!! SMART BUDGETING, SMART STORYLINE.

movies these days are too focused on visual effects and their storylines are crap. they no longer know how to manupilate audience's emotion anymore. unlike moon, decent visual, and a outstanding storyline.

the oscar are dumbasses, i bet they only watch films with high budgets. they dont know what theyre missing out.

my top 5 movie and i will support it

[zepaola]

GREAT FILM.

[Fetcha200]

Please search for this movie on Facebook. I created a page on facebook because I liked this movie so much that I decided it's time to make it more popular because it didn't win a fucking oscar nomination, fucking sad. Sorry about swearing, I'm just pissed about today's society..

[gzuse]

No, they are clones.

[ndubbleemo]

fuckin' awesome movie. and thats all there is to it.

[warcrouch]

unbelieveable good movie

[paktas]

really amazing movie

[UnGatoExtraviado]

i want sam rockwell inside of me

[tvcrunkfool]

on my opinion the finest film of 09

[jwattie]

This was a wonderful film...Sam is an amazing actor and these guys were fucking robbed!!!It's disgraceful they didn't get the recognition they deserved!

[JM4EDR]

Gosh, don't they look alike?

Duncan Jones is such a lovely man, you wouldn't think he's the son of a famous person. Just goes to show, they're not all spoilt brats.

[johnnythunders78]

They weren't clones, they were alternate versions of Sam Bell from other dimensions. That was the whole point of his mission on the moon, multiverse research.

[rot0001]

@johnnythunders78 I'm guessing you're joking... But, if not, you're wrong. He's there for 3 years to mine Helium-3 and send it back to Earth as a clean alternative energy source. He isn't an alternate Sam, he's a clone. That's why they bring up clones so many times, and why they also go down into "The nursery" and find all the clones. The reason the contract is only 3 years long is because that's how long clones last. If you don't believe me, then look it up on Wikipedia, or some other place.

[EchoBoomer1987]

Weres Sam Rockwell 2?

[sabbathian]

Filmed in 33 days )

[BasiliosCousin]

But also.. i must to say: nothing of that would happen, or worked in way or another, without the incredible soundtrack... Clint Mansell prooved his value one more time. For Sam Rockwell, I already knew what was to expect: great acting skills. But Duncan Jones, that guy I`ll start to watch closer. Well done, it`s a great movie. And duck the oscar, never believed them anyways.

[ygustavo]

do you know where i can get the soundtrack????

[BasiliosCousin]

hi ygustavo, try to torrent it.

[ygustavo]

@BasiliosCousin

thanks bro.

[groove1971]

It was an ok film. Too confusing and one dimensional. Too much of 2001 a space odessy. Not very original and a little boring. The ending is also rubbish....leaves you not knowing what happened.

[haebee]

i agree with many here that this is the best movie of 2009. but the oscars being what it is - a bunch of moth ball-scented, privileged old fogeys playing politics with studios that wine and dine them - will pass this over for politically-correct bullcrap. in what is essentially a one-person cautionary tale, sam rockwell makes it all look so easy. and kudos to the writers for giving us three-dimensional characters that require no frigging 3-D glasses to be believed. criminally under-rated.

[whutthe82]

Cant believe it got oscar snubbed.RIDICULOUS. BEST MOVIE of 2009

[Maxfield93]

too bad people would rather see a cliche Pocahontas/dances with wolfs ripoff, with predictable unoriginal characters and bloated overdone jungle setting than a movie that actually has a heart and soul.

I can't believe this didn't get nominated for a single oscar.

[leonoel42]

This is way better than Avatar. Yes the FX are brilliant but it left me cold emotionally. This film connects on that level. It just amazing they did it so cheaply and in such a short timsescale (33 days)

[goldenmarin]

5 million $ movie , UN FUCKING BELIVABLE . Looks more like a 300mill movie its great 10/10 .

[Aridcreaturehere]

And the acting only increases that dollar value in your head.

But, 5 million. Unbelievable film...

[ModernDayReview88]

@goldenmarin Not really mostly everything in the film are actual sets few things were made by computers animation. So it is believable.

[TotalDoomsayer]

@goldenmarin Hell yeah man, easily one of the greatest films I have ever seen. Blew me away, and the soundtrack was epic.

[salesman92]

what's with the interviewer's camera?

[mattfca]

Was Robin Chalk a major player in the clone scenes? Or was it all Sam Rockwell with everything shot twice?

[Ant777uk]

I was ALLLLL Sam. And Duncan Jones' genius.

[klonijn]

Isn't Duncan Jones the son of David Bowie?

The statue in the background is like an oscar looking over Sam's shoulder, haha. Give the man one! Anyone who did not see this film yet, you should, every bit and piece has been brilliantly put together to make a very moving film.

[Ant777uk]

Yes, he is.

[iamericwhite]

Haha, brilliant. Duncan's father is English, and mother is American, and you can definitely hear the exact duality between the two accents flawlessly..

[Nivanarocks]

fuckin freat how they did the clone

[AmyK007]

If these two don't win Oscars there is something seriously wrong.

[GeorgesBarras]

Yep, powerful combination.

[knocked44]

There's something wrong either way. I hope they do win though. Moon is a great film. And it demonstrates an ability on Duncan's part to overview some conceptual dilemmas related to the self and self-othering without looking like a philosophically ignorant amateur. Looking forward to the sequel.

[Ant777uk]

I agree. it also says alot , from a psychodramatic point of view, about doubles, and loss of identity.

[RealPinkDreams]

Sam Rockwell , Owen Wilson , Julian McMahon . Hugh Jackman , Eric Bana ,

Brendan Fraser , Josh Brolin , James Caviezel , Casper Van Dien , Aaron Eckhart , Anthony Michael Hall , Edward Burns , Julian McMahon , Michael Vartan , Patrick Muldoon , Aidan Gillen , Kyle Eastwood , Tony Hawk , Kurt Angle , Timothy Olyphant all these amazing & wonderful stars are in the age ABOUT 46 so I wonder how they can be so active & so attractive persons ( physically ) in this old age ?? any answer PLEASE

[kimberlykenobi]

@AmyK007 There is something seriously wrong. Best film from last year, best sci-fi film of the decade & no recognition. For shame.

[UnGatoExtraviado]

@AmyK007 brother oscars are given to the wrong people most of the time

[pureafricanqueen]

@AmyK007 They didn't.

[kromed01]

@AmyK007 they didnt and I agree with you. They should have won best director and best actor.

[kromed01]

@AmyK007 They didnt win any Oscars. They should have won best actor and best director.

[IAreDunce]

@AmyK007 Something was seriously wrong.

[Schmidteren]

@AmyK007 they didn't even get nominated... it is bullshit... actually if you read about it it is Sonys fault, those fuckheads!...

amazing movie and amazing performance by Sam Rockwell, should NOT be unnoticed!

[AmyK007]

@Schmidteren They didn't even get nominated? Then then "system" is corrupt. Getting an Oscar should be decided by the people. After all it's us who pay to see the film.

[TheyCallMeTroll]

@AmyK007 If people decided on Oscars, Twilight would end up winning every award. It is a somewhat fair system.

[hotboyzbryana]

oscar is deserved

[90mv]

awesome film

[ferbert19]

is a fucking 4 year old filming. I dont need a fucking zoom.

[penguinboy81]

" you can ad-lib, but you gotta know the ad-lib ahead of time "

Duhhhhhh!

[sazerac1]

Young "Joe" was in Berlin with his dad and Iggy Pop during those years. He is excited to get back to film his new film, MUTE. Sam will have a cameo part.

[Anteroization]

Duncan Jones , director, when i saw the name i said he is zowie bowie ! he studied film ! He is the son of david and angela bowie, remarkable, congratulations !

[tatboi89]

[HotaruXS]

Beautiful Movie.

[highlander2121]

Can I ask you a thing? When exactly the press announcement of the movie happened?

[NateDawg80126]

Going to see it tomorrow, only one showing in the whole of the Denver metro area tomorrow.

[minimalmuse]

LOVED the movie & LOVE Sam Rockwell!!

[k2aileron]

our minds.

[Chimpleg]

Absolutely amazing film, and I'm so glad (after seeing the small release) that it is spreading all over the place and people are loving it as much as I did. FANTASTIC.

[jonshaft00]

Sam Rockwell was Truly Amazing in this film. He absolutely nailed it! Very sad and touching movie.

[78docha]

he absolutely does!

there were moments when i just cudn't believe tht it is in fact the same person who's playing those 2 characters! (not 2 spoil anything =D) they were so different! amazing!

[EvilOak27]

I also saw it last night and agree... Fantastic all around.

Rockwell deserves Oscar consideration IMO.

[78docha]

its such a sad movie...

and sam rockwell is absolutely BRILLIANT in it!

[YouTuber2006]

Saw it last night. Couldn't agree more. When you realize what is happening to him, it's painful to watch. He deserves an Oscar for this role.

[Luchkow]

agreed. i was baffled by how sad it was... didn't expect that.

[TheViewerfan123]

Great movie. I don't think it's ment to 'copy' 2001. I see it as 'paying respect' to that movie. Sam Rockwell was amazing!

[islanumblar]

Does anyone know if this'll come out on blu ray?

[jackyeats88]

I thought that It was pretty good. I'm glad I went to see it.

[brunosis]

Saw this last night. Brilliant. Loved it.

[phelius]

damn good movie.

[bobcranehomevids]

saw this last night, amazing ! best sci-fi I've seen in 20 years, love the look, old technology, gritty, dirty reminded me of star wars (77) in terms of look, everything is old and beat up.

Love the postit notes over things, cloth tape holding things together and Sam Rockwell is amazing, if you loved Solaris (remake) you'll love this, people will say it's borrows from 2001 and 70's sci-fi, but so what they're all dated and 30+ years old, in 2009 this is original and fresh, perfect movie 10/10

[Catalyst1423]

whens it come out on dvd?

[Chomej]

The film is amazing, go see it right now

[AnarchyIncProduction]

I agree with Chomej.

Saw it for the third time last night and seeing it again tonight.

It's that good.

[Tes80]

Can't wait to see the movie! I'm wondering when we'll be able to see it inEurope!

[thewomandirector]

MOON is a terrific film - go see it!

[MoonageDaydream2008]

i really look forward to seeing this film!

Duncan is such a lovely young man :-)

[imprezachic]

i really enjoyed the movie. i watched it w/ my father last night and on the way home we were talking about how we've never seen anything like it before! BRAVO!

[tribecafilm]

Sam Rockwell, Duncan Jones, and David Bowie take over the Red Carpet at the Tribeca Film Festival screening of Moon. Watch it here! youtube [dot] com/watch?v=fVVN056w9dw

[Redrum267]

i spoiled it for a day. then i was scolded. 

SPOILER REMOVED.

[robbrody53]

WHY YOU DO THIS?!

[UrbanSwagger]

Saturn 3, Alien, Outland, Dark Star. I loved those movies growing up and will definitely want to see Moon. Sorry I missed the SXSW screening.

[macspectrum]

2001 is the grand daddy of all these sci fi - examine humanity movies

[dawnofdarken]

can someone spoil the movie? i noticed the name of the moon base is called sarang which in korean means love. So why is it called that and what is the real deal? Yeah i like spoilers

[wertyuzat]

david's teeth, smile nose , ears, everything else angela. dude has talent of his own..

[thezaylady]

He certainly has David's soft voice and Angela's zest. A lovely combination!

[mmr11027]

I think it's great that Duncan Jones has selected a name to distance himself from his father's professional career. From the clips of this film, it appears that he is certainly talented and does not need to ride on anyone's coat-tails.

[sazerac1]

I agree completely. His father didn't pay for it. Sony and Sting's wife, Trudy, and another corporation are listed as the people that provided the funding. He has directed music videos and commercials for years in London and has a film degree from the US.

[DJOfRadioGallifrey]

He has his dad's pixie ears and nose, thats it, the rest is angela's.

[DBCrowns]

I don't think he looks like David. I think he looks more like his Mom.

[bennihana123]

Under related videos, is the guy in the 'Zowie Bowie' video the same guy? Duncan Jones and Zowie Bowie seem like completely different people.

[buzzardbeatniks]

No, not the same guy, Zowie Bowie is some vegas act thing - very strange choice of name, I wonder how Duncan Jones feels about it.

[LittleD3]

there not. Zowie Bowie took that name because he was a fan of Duncans dad.

[whosgumisthis]

I fucking love Sam Rockwell. I think he is one of the great actors of our time.

[iamericwhite]

Whooooa. He totally looks like David.

[thealgaehunter]

I just got back from seeing this film. It's absolutely incredible. Sam Rockwell proves once again that he is a fantastic actor.

[LadyScreaming]

The clips I've seen look promising! .... I notice Duncan Jones doesn't look like his father at all.

[donald386]

I saw this movie at Sundance. It was incredible.

[Aueneye]

Looking forward to this Movie. Must be hard having David Bowie as a dad. Glad to see Mr Jones blazing his own artistic trail. Hope it works out for him.

[joshuamathewg]

looking forward to the movie!

[lexiadisia]

I'm really looking forward to seeing this. A great interview, thanks for putting this up.

[widerling]

One of the rawest,most opened interview have seen in a long time.Just breaks the science down in the "making of"without the layers of prentention.nice one!Double thumbs up for sharing this little gem.
