The Silence of the Trees

I liked it all right. The idea was an interesting one. But I'm not a big Charlton Heston fan. He played a good Long John Silver! It was a good part for an overactor. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

Je n'ai pas vu ce film et je pense, comme Annie, que c'est une métaphore de notre Terre, le seul vaisseau spatial qui nous permette de faire exister notre espèce, pour l'instant. Bravo pour le résumé qui permet de suivre l'histoire de ce film. I have not seen this movie and I think, like Annie, it's a metaphor for our Earth, the only spacecraft that allows us to make our species exist, for now. Bravo for the summary that tracks the story of this film. Merci ! Que l'idée et ce film ont changé la voie a changé la voie I pensé au futur. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

I love this movie, I was 12 when it came out and remember being very sad when Louie was lost. I always thought living my life in a beautiful space-bound forest without asshole humans around would be THE life! Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

It is. But I do appreciate that Freeman Lowell was a realistic character, with quirks and flaws rather than a one dimensional hero/savior. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

I have never seen the movie but it sounds interesting. Great topic ... and I'm so upset that I was not the first person to bring up Soylent Green. "Soylent Green is people!! Soylent Green is people!" We're eating ourselves because we have exhausted every other natural resource on the planet. Very thought provoking. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

I've never heard of this movie so thanks for bringing it up. One would think that taking care of the planet we live on is a no brainer. Too bad some people's idea of "take care of" is at an idiot level and others just don't have the common sense to understand that we only have one Earth. Don't pollute and value living things; except some bugs. We have lots of bugs so the ones that find their way inside my home are eligible for annihilation.

Thank you sweetheart!  It's kind of relevant to me right now- a new paved bike trail is being gouged out of Al Sabo Preserve. I read the bikers' reviews online and the idiots call for more trimming of vegetation and making the place more "family friendly". I want to go all Freeman Lowell on these clowns. What's great about the place is the wild feel. They can go ride their fucking bikes on Interstate 94. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

I had forgotten about this movie. I'll need to watch it again, but thanks for the synopsis. Even more appropriate today, isn't it? I believe also that the whole planet and all it's ecosystems are interconnected, we are killing ourselves as well as the planet. Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

Not being a science fiction buff, I haven't come across the Silent Running film but it's based on a very interesting premise. It got me thinking what I'd select to take into space. I thought of plant seeds and then I thought of myself, but i eventually decided to send Donald Trump on this mission on the basis it will be a doomed one-way mission!

I have never seen the film....not really into Science Fiction at all but it seems to have been very far sighted for the early 70's .  ~~Anais Nin~~

this movie was pivotal for me. I understood the need for preservation and I wept at his sacrifice. I remember thinking of him as a savior and wishing for a sequel when the dome was recovered and the plants became once more part of a living planet. (only one letter difference between plant and planet - I made a t shirt like this save the plan(e)t........ lord I was one weird child. thanks for the memory You cannot conceive the many without the one.

So it came to a sad ending after all. I don't object to them riding in the preserve, but they want to take it over. They ignore the no bikes signs on certain trails, and they can't be bothered to alert you that they're coming up behind you. We ought to be able to get along....and we would, if they'd find someplace else to ride. This county has miles of bike trails. We need our preserve! Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

I lived in Washington state during my elementary school years and thought I was destined to be a "Fire Watcher" out in the middle of some old growth forests. I think one of my teachers must have held that job at one time. Ever since then I have been a "tree hugging" nature boy. I guess it comes down to two philosophies: are we here to share or rule this world? What do we lose in spirit when we lose nature? An interesting post, and I have never heard of this movie. I did like Bruce Dern in "Support Your Local Sheriff" among others.

Thanks, Flower. There's a lot of really crummy science fiction movies, but there are also some great ones. For me this was one of the best. If we radically alter our environment, we may still be human, but what kind of human? Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

That was a good one. And women are suckers for Cary Grant! Become a member now and get a free tote bag.

Thanks for taking the pain to write the story of the movie. It really make me want to watch it.

I love this movie. When he makes the decision to let the robots carry on without him, its just heart breaking. As for being simple...often the simple things are the hardest to understand. Good post.
