This is a wicked essay. Only thing, you could have done more with talking about Kubrick's visuals, and how the 'future' looks very much like a 'souped up' version of 1971, but other than that, just great.

Loved this. Actually only got to see the movie for the first time a couple of weeks ago, and was so impressed with it. The communist symbolism I didn't notice when I first saw it, but now I read your essay, it's very noticable.On a more critical note, it might have been better to phrase things a little better overall, making the text more fluid. However, what you have done is extremely well researched and planned.

Liked this, a different approach to film and similar media, though I think you have fallen into the trap that I think a lot of people (including myself) fall into, the fact of summing up. I was taught to sum up everything into one paragraph, saying what can be learned from this etc. I see you have tried to sum it up, though it might need a 'finishing off' sentence. Cool essay though.Best Wishes1912babe
