Beschreibung:
Susanne Kord is a professor at University College London. She is the author of ten books (four about film) and has received six major awards for her writing. Her most recent film book is Little Horrors: How Cinema's Evil Children Play on Our Guilt (2016). She lives in London.
This volume examines Terry Gilliam's 12 Monkeys (1995) with an eye to the film's major themes, including mental illness, conspiracy theories, the impossibility of human closeness, and the nature of reality. It reads 12 Monkeys's portrayal of time travel in light of Einstein's ideas about time and the problem of free will versus determinism.
