There’s nothing more blissful than knowing that
instead of discussing lessons, your class will actually take the whole period
watching a film. The Fly is an American science fiction-horror film. The
caption for the movie is, “Once it was human – even as you and I.” It was a
1958 film so I was eagerly excited to know what films are like at that time.
The
film showed how technology and science decades ago. It was about a scientist
named Andre Delambre. Andre has been working for transporter device called dis-integrator-integrator.
He starts with transporting small objects proudly presenting it to his wife,
Helene. He eventually proceeds to transporting living creatures from their pet
cat up to a guinea pig. After noticing the success of his project, Andre
proceeds on working on a human sized chamber for the transporter.
The
climax of the movie starts when Helene found out what happened to Andre after
days on not going out of their basement lab. It is discovered that Andre tried
to transport himself but a fly also got stuck inside the chamber. Because of
what happened, Andre’s and the fly’s atoms mixed causing Andre to have the fly’s
head and arm. In order to get his body
back to normal, Andre needs his wife to find the fly with a white head.
The
movie is interesting and has the right amount of thrill that every one of the
audience will love though it is a bit ‘corny’ for some parts. I also learned a bit from the science and
technology five to six decades ago in the movie. In totality, watching the movie
was a great experience.
