Watch options. Storyline Edit. On the same night, a planet similar and close to Earth is discovered and called Earth 2.
Rhoda drives her car looking at Earth 2 and crashes with composer John Burroughs, killing his pregnant wife and his baby son. Rhoda goes to prison and four years later she is released and moves to her parents' house.
She finds a job as high-school janitor, but tries to commit suicide. She survives, however, and submits an essay to a contest where the prize is a ticket to travel to Earth 2. Meanwhile the scientists discover that Earth 2 is a mirror of Earth and the synchronicity between the dwellers was interrupted when the planets were seen by each other. One day, Rhoda decides to visit John Burroughs, whose life was destroyed after the death of his family, to admit to him that she had killed his family.
However she does not have the nerve to tell him the truth. So she lies and tells him he has won a free cleaning service of his home. Rhoda wins the writing contest, but meanwhile John and she have fallen in love with each other. Rhoda has to take a decision whether she goes or stays, but she wants to tell John the truth first. Rated PG for disturbing images, some sexuality, nudity and brief drug use.
Did you know Edit. Trivia The scene where Brit Marling leaves prison was achieved by getting Marling to pose as a yoga instructor and enter and leave the prison for real.
Goofs If a planet the size and density of Earth appeared so close to itself, the gravitational pull would cause significant changes in its orbit and 'Earth One' would suffer from constant disasters, e. Quotes Rhoda Williams : You know that story of the Russian cosmonaut? User reviews Review. Another Earth is a beauty to look at, but a task to watch and dissect. It compiles a number of shots that feel like a student photography project, and convinces the audience members to "suspend disbelief" so the film can go on its way.
I can suspend disbelief for simple things like a second Earth appearing in the sky. I can't when it comes to simple movie-making terms. This is director Mike Cahill's first feature film. He shot, edited, wrote, and was one of the four people who produced it and got it a limited theatrical release. I commend his efforts, but the direct result is fair at best.
I will say that the photography is some of the best I've seen in any independent film. But readers know I can't just praise a film for having beautiful photography.
It must back more under its belt. The story is about Rhoda Williams played by Brit Marling, who also wrote and produced the film , a woman bound for MIT and hopefully intriguing things in life.
She is coming home from a party when she's had a few too many when she hears on the radio that there's a glowing blue dot in the night sky. That dot is rumored to be a second Earth. She looks out her window to catch a glimpse of it, and in the process, crashes her car into another car and kills a mother, a child, and leaves the father in a coma.
Four years pass. Rhoda is released from jail, and is now working as a school janitor. She wants to live life in a secluded manner, but feels the need to go to the father's house and apologize for the damage and distress she causes. She ultimately loses her nerve and says she's a housekeeper. Her and the man, John Burroughs Mapother , start to become increasingly close, which leads to personal demon conflicts with Rhoda. Oh, and that Earth-like planet that was in the sky? It now has a name.
It's confirmed to be a second Earth, named Earth 2. We couldn't see it for so long because it was supposedly hiding behind the sun. The discovery of this planet is needless, and if extracted from the plot could leave a bunch of metaphors, the film feels like throwing at us, in the dust. That's my biggest complaint; this film is unfocused metaphorically. It feels like instead of focusing on character development it wants to hold a contest for how many metaphors it can make.
Literally almost everything in this film is done for an ambiguous purpose. Rhoda works as a janitor when she's released from prison to clean up the mess, get it? Earth 2 exists because on its planet there are supposedly doppelgangers of humans to show the better side of people, get it? It's almost like Another Earth is self-obsessed in the sense where it feels to get noticed it needs to make you think way too hard.
It trades pacing for scenery, character development for metaphors, dialog for awkward, abrupt silences, and so on. When it comes to character development, there is a very small amount.
Silence is golden in Another Earth, and far too often. There were quite a few scenes of silence in The Tree of Life, another nonlinear film I praised earlier this year. In The Tree of Life, what was going on was enough to keep me interested. The characters, especially Rhoda, use the silence to help them stare off into space. Maybe the start of another metaphor? But Another Earth does come equipped with perhaps one of the most surreal and stunning scenes this year in film.
It involves a woman attempting to make contact with Earth 2 for the first time. The scene was gold and unsettling, and was executed in a way that has me at a loss for words. Lots of color correction is clear from the post-production hell this probably caused. Some scenes involve a strange tint of blue that almost smothers the picture quality.
Though the color enhancement can be intrusive sometimes, when it is applied to the sky and Earth 2 it is exquisite and inventive. Probably some of the sharpest I've seen for an independent film. Another Earth is a severe independent film, but watching the trailer you probably wouldn't notice.
When viewing the trailer, I expected it to break the box office. Not the case, obviously. I never saw or heard of it afterwards. Then I found out its budget and its release were minuscule. I was astounded. The trailer and the film are conducted almost in a limitless way.
In the art direction field of course. The rest is on autopilot. Starring: Brit Marling and William Mapother. Directed by: Mike Cahill. ANOTHER EARTH is an acclaimed indie output from which brings us a rising actress Brit Marling and a director on Hollywood's watch-list, Mike Cahill, his feature debut is a soft Sci-Fi allegory another earth appears on sight and breaks synchronicity of the parallel worlds varnished with a mumblecore maneuver which tackles the redemption after an inadvertent car accident.
On the night of the emergence of earth no. Being a minor at that time, Rhoda was only sentenced in jail for four years, when she was released, she found out John had awaken from a coma, so she approached him as a cleaner, meanwhile she also applied to be a volunteer recruited as the first earthling contingent to embark on another earth.
When her entanglement with John went beyond her grip, another earth might purvey another chance both for his loss and her repentance. Curbed by its meager budget, in certain moments, the movie looks rather substandard in its home video quality, but it doesn't discourage the crew to get the best out of what they have, the gradually enlarging images of earth no. That's why it is a marvelous film, it creates something much bigger than its fodder suggests and leaves no loose end, Marling and Cahill wrote a truly innovative script and the ending is perplexingly unexpected in a way but also intrigues different interpretations of what had happened on that unknown planet, its mirror theory of parallel spaces is not new, but is applied smartly into the plot and does widen our horizons.
Marling is an out-and-out leading lady material, she balks, rues, hesitates, dares to face the consequences of her behavior, she listens, feels, generates an ineffaceable presence with subdued sentiments and forces audiences never lose attention towards her. Mapother a veteran from TV series LOST , comes strong as a grieve-ridden widower, it is a substantial role for him to show his capacity and he is great not to mention his unique string performance with a saw, such a whimsical bravura to ravish a girl's libido!
By the way, the score manufactured by Fall On Your Sword is absolutely on the nose. ANOTHER EARTH is covered with a not so fancy Sci-fi coat, inside it delves into the deepest nexus between two wounded souls, one is an offender and another is the victim, but once a deception arrives as handy as a prelude, the fence can never be mended, even it is on another earth.
PS: The film and director Cahill are new-entries into my Top 10 list, plus both Marling and Mapother are among Top 5 in their respective acting branch of KineticSeoul 8 July But the drama mixes well with the slight sci-fi elements in this movie. Even if the drama parts does get a bit tedious sometimes but the makes still did a decent job with what they had.
In fact maybe more resources might have taken away the vibe of this movie. The cinematography may seem a bit cheap and they used a cheap camera to record this movie but that gives a bit of a dream like vibe, especially in the beginning.
Which actually adds to the direction this movie is trying to go. The plot is about a young 17 yr old girl Rhoda Williams Brit Marling who has her life set and everything seems planned out in her life, especially after getting accepted to MIT. But she makes a stupid mistake while driving and kills 3 people of a family.
After she gets out of prison after 4 yrs, she is still obsessed with the starts but she also tries to take responsibility for her action which is rare in today's society. Also while this is going on, another planet with almost the exact qualities of earth is discovered. The planet is discovered before the accident but now they are able to send people on a shuttle to that planet. And now having a contest for people to be sent off to that planet by submitting a essay. That planet is a LOT similar to planet earth, in fact it's almost exactly the same without giving much or the ending away.
Anyways it's so similar the other planet probably calls the planet Earth 2 and them just Earth. Anyways Rhoda enters the contest to be sent off on a shuttle to reach earth 2. Brit Marling did a good job with her role you can't help but have some sympathy towards her character.
And she doesn't seem to be pulling any gimmicks or trying really hard to force it. At first I was like why did they have to use another planet to make this movie, it could have been something else. But as this movie progresses it starts to make sense and gives off some interesting messages. Might not be original but still interesting enough. This movie sort of reminded me of "Rabbit Hole" less emotional version of it, but this is more intriguing.
And for the most part I liked this movie more better. Overall this movie might not be for everyone and may need some patience, not a lot but some but it's worth it. However you can tell how the ending will play out very early on in this movie, probably not the complete ending but most of it. Special Note: This is a delayed review from a movie I recently saw, albeit many months ago.
Without notes, these are my recollections to the best of my ability. If you were to speak to me about this particular movie, I bet I could elaborate even more. I'm one of the few that liked Another Earth. The other "main idea" of the alternative universe was such a backdrop, it was almost as if they had such an incredibly limited budget — which is probably true — that they couldn't focus too much on that.
ThomasDrufke 29 January How do you get an audience to sympathize with a felon? Well, you cast a great actress and write a great script. This film asks many things of its audience, which include buying into an obscure and uncomfortable romance, and for the most part it succeeds very well. While it doesn't hit the emotional highs of something like Arrival or Interstellar, on a much smaller level, it challenges the audience's brain, and sometimes that's all you can ask for out of a science fiction film.
And given just how creative and unique 'Another Earth' is, I give this film all the credit it deserves. I'm actually surprised in, that while i Origins had problems, they weren't thematic problems. This tim has an even more intriguing premise, but it wants to be a sci-fi and a character drama and the character drama stuff doesn't work all that well.
Oh sure, once again it remains intriguing just because it's so well-made and Brit Marling keeps it afloat with her very strong, quiet work, but it's just so problematic that her protagonist would attempt what she does throughout, and it certainly doesn't make her seem all that likable for my money. The film seems to want to do character drama more than sic fi and that's a shame but, alas, it's decent for what it is but very predictable.
The most deceptive title and marketing I have seen. This is not a sci-fi movie. This is a drama about redemption. When a chance to win a trip to Earth 2 comes up she finds her chance to start over. Based off the previews I was expecting this to be a sci-fi along the lines of "Moon". What I found was that this was more of a character study on how a young girl with everything going for her loses it all.
The movie's main plot is how Rhoda can tell the man that she killed his wife and daughter. The aspect of finding Another Earth which is what I was interested in is glossed over. If you are looking for a different type of sci-fi movie this is not it at all. The movie is not that bad overall, little slow, but the title is deceiving. Overall, little slow and depressing, should have been called and marketed as something else.
This is not what I expected at all. Even MC Escher would struggle to illustrate the paradoxical conundrum which the ending offers. It's laughable that the nitpickers are complaining about the scientific impossibilities related to the sudden appearance of a second Earth in the Solar System. All you whiners out there need to know that this movie is not so much about the sci-fi, but more about destiny as the principal theme.
It's not about whether gravity and cosmic chance allow a second Earth or not. So put back those "Physics for Dummies" books back on your shelves, ye viewers of little intelligence, and switch on your tiny brains.
Worse yet, I bet these viewers are the same people who watched "Sunshine" and found nothing wrong with it scientifically or otherwise. Nitpicking is a fine art, not to be dabbled into by dilettantes and children, and to be practiced only when necessary. I should know, for I am one of the greatest nitpickers of all time.
Instead of whining about the issue of gravity, these reviewers should have focused more on the strange ending, which offers more additional questions than answers, which is the ideal way to finish a sci-fi mystery drama, as far as I'm concerned.
The implications of Rhoda being visited by her Earth 2 double is that the other Rhoda, Rhoda 2, hadn't fared any better in life than Rhoda 1, i.
This is of course a downer ending which the writers took in account, knowing full well that in return they get to end the film with the meeting of a pair of duplicates, which was one of the major running themes in the movie, i. It was a fitting way to end the film, even though the more conventional viewers the few that mistakenly thought that they should be watching this kind of flick, the ones waving "Physics for Dummies" around like some over-zealous street preachers will be irked that the ensuing conversation between the two Rhodas wasn't shown.
There is a hitch, an implied paradox, in the ending. If Rhoda 2 was chosen by Earth 2 for the mission then we have to assume that this means that Rhoda 2 also killed John's family i. On the other side of the coin, i. I have my doubts movie writers are notorious for not thinking things through. It's a bit like dabbling with time-travel - you just can't win, because illogic and contradictions get the better of you no matter how you set up the conclusion.
It became clear early on that John would ask Rhoda not to go when she got chosen for the mission. I thought she'd make the ultimate sacrifice by rejecting the offer to visit the new planet, and that that would be the film's dramatic high-point ending, sort of a strange attempt at redemption. However, the twist the writers had in mind was far less predictable, i. Alas, she vacated her seat to him for nothing.
Or did she? Either way, the upside for her was that she got the opportunity to meet her other self, which she otherwise would probably have missed on had she flown on the mission although this part is purely speculative, we'd need an actual sequel to answer that one, though something tells me that this is not the type of movie that would spawn a sequel in a million years. Perhaps whatever she'd heard from this other Rhoda might have helped her in some way to come to terms with the past, especially if that info contains the confirmation that John's family is alive at Earth 2.
I had anticipated that Rhoda 2 would be arriving to Earth 1, this seemed perfectly logical given that everything was a perfect replica on the other side. The Galaxy is yours for the taking.
