Children of Men was one of those movies that I knew I watched, but for the life of me I can’t remember if I liked or not.

He told his collaborators that he needed to “write something but no arty shit.” He needed a screenplay “that would let a studio give me a cheque.”
The same evening he started outlining “Gravity”

“Gravity” gained critical and commercial acclaim with over $723 millions at the box office and 7 Oscar Awards

Idk this man. I’m not a film girlie. But even his poos are freaking diamonds in the rough.
