There are many movies made around the space. Some are based on a threat, some are sci-fiction and others were inspired by real life. Space can be a scary place. It does not cooperate with you. This was a dialogue from the Martians. But on the contrary in Interstellar, Nolan calls space a beautiful place. Whether it’s beautiful or scary, one thing for sure is space is lonely. And there are many movies that show the loneliness in space. So here are 5 movies that especially focus on this topic.
THE MARTIAN:
The movie is based on a Noel by the same name. It was directed by the legendary Ridley Scott. This movie focuses on an astronaut who is also a biologist, who has been accidentally abandoned on Mars. This is his story and how he was retrieved and he came back to Earth. But in between, this movie also shows what a person has to though if he is abandoned in space anywhere and not just mars. What you have to face including loneliness because you are alone on this planet and no one to talk to.
INTERSTELLAR:
This movie is a directional masterpiece of Christopher Nolan. It’s one of his only Space Sci-fi to date and it’s beautifully made.
