I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m going to assume you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve seen the latest Duncan Jones film, Mute. I am very likely going to say who did what and to whom, so there will definitely be spoilers. I ought also to mention the following: I went into this film expecting to like it because, to this point, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve liked everything that Jones has done. Enough so that, in a dream world where my books are made into films, he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s the top director on my list at the moment. I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t speak to Jones\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s authorial intent.

And so, as I opine, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m basing this purely on what my experience was as a watcher. I love this film. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m doing this in a blog instead of a tweet storm because Twitter is an ugly place and I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t get my degree in Philosophy just to have trolls call it a \u00e2\u20ac\u0153discussion\u00e2\u20ac\u009d when they fling their excrement at me. Got it? Right, then let\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s talk [&hellip;]","thumbnail_url":"http:\/\/www.amberbird.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/mute-e1519241485550.jpg"}
