the shape of water first premiered at the venice film festival and is out now in uk cinemas .
he throws in philosophical aides about the nature of memory ( “time is but a river throwing from our past” ) and uses water throughout the film in an ingenious fashion . ( the film includes surely one of the best scenes of a bathroom being flooded in movie history . )
another striking aspect of the film is the dedication that appears at the end . the inscription is in memory of director david mackenzie ’s parents , who died within four months of each other in perthshire , scotland during the making of the film .
mary : just as when a person dies and water leaves it , so does the tea ceremony end when the water is gone . this is emphasized in the novel and is a simple but powerful way of looking at water . this question is two - fold . one is out of curiosity : have you had experience in hosting or attending a tea ceremony , and do its attendees respect the power of the water ? second , is the tea ceremony a metaphor for life , for everything that holds water ? when the water ends , our life’s ceremony is also over .
no title yet , another haunting memory is the one ghost telling the others that he just needs some help digging under the tail of the plane because he just knows that his dog tags are there . i thought the title was or included

some memory of my dad and i discussing how they didn ' t have water for that period of time . probably wrong on that memory .
you can find memory of water at amazon . the book was first published in 2012 in finland ; emmi was compared to ursula k . le guin and margaret atwood . the novel was published in english in june 2014 .
mary : the book’s title , memory of water , is a double entendre . i think as a reader , i first realized that in this future dystopian world , remembering the importance of water is key to respecting it as a life - force that we must protect and conserve today . then , at one point , your beautiful prose illustrates that water has its own memory . throughout the book , you hauntingly show that water is in all we are , all we ingest , all that is life , in everything else that is alive , too , even in the stones . every place water is , or has been , it “remembers” its history . i loved this idea , and wonder if you could talk a little bit about it .
i want to thank emmi for this wonderful interview . my first pleasure was reading her book , memory of water . the novel takes place in the future after climate change has ravished economies and ecologies , and made fresh water scarce . when reading , you just want to drink a glass of cold water and revel in it as if it is the last great thing you will ingest . one could never take water for granted again after reading this novel . the main character , noria , is a young woman learning the traditional , sacred tea master art from her father . yet , water is rationed and scarce in her future world . her family has a secret spring of water , and , as tea masters , she and her father act as the water’s guards , even though what they are doing is a crime according to their future world’s government , a crime strongly disciplined by the military .
as the title indicates , memory is at the center of this play . the water metaphor — which strikes me as more vaguely poetic than illuminating — arises from teresa ' s practice : homeopathic cures involve remedies diluted in water to the point that no molecule of the original remains , on the theory that the water still retains a kind of ghost or aftershadow of these substances . in the same way , the spirit of vi — who turns out to be a very lively ghost indeed — lingers in the psyches of her daughters . there are many other references to memory in the script : mary ' s thoughts about her amnesiac patient , the confusion vi suffered as alzheimer ' s took control of her brain , the fact that the sisters can ' t agree on the straightforward facts of a single childhood memory — at least not until the very end of the play . it ' s not that they interpret shared experiences differently ; they can ' t even remember which one of them actually had the experience .
toward the end of matias bize’s “the memory of water , ” an attractive couple unable to cope with the death of their child take to the woods to talk things over . next to the sylvan chaos of “antichrist , ” these two telenovela - pretty parents have it easy : there are no smashed genitals or talking foxes here to get in [ … ]
after wowing venice film festival press this morning with his cold war - set fairy tale , guillermo del toro unveiled the shape of water in its official competition screening tonight . the reception inside the sala grande was rapturous and one of the most emotional festival debuts in recent memory . a lengthy standing ovation ended only when del toro and his cast finally left the theater .

the tomatometer score — based on the opinions of hundreds of film and television critics — is a trusted measurement of critical recommendation for millions of fans . it represents the percentage of professional critic reviews that are positive for a given film or television show .
shape of water is a romantic fantasy that stars sally hawkins , doug jones , michael stuhlbarg , michael shannon , octavia spencer and richard jenkins .
emmi : one of the central themes of memory of water is continuity : of tradition , of culture , of history , of knowledge , of the relationship between humans and their environment . the story explores the impact of disrupting these continuities . the society portrayed has lost part of its history and therefore does not know how to build a better future . meanwhile , the continuity of the tea masters’ tradition has become a double - edged sword , which both maintains vital resources and monopolizes them . i chose water as the central element of the story because of its continuous nature : it is always changing , but never disappears . it can revive or destroy , and it is something much older and more powerful than humans . i felt it was a potent metaphor for many things , and in the course of the writing process i began to think of it as a living being , one of the main characters of the book .
plot : a big screen re - enactment of the making of tommy wiseau ' s cult film the room deemed ' the worst movie of all time . '
the play one of britain ' s hottest new playwrights has come forth with the memory of water , a play about three sisters who return home after the death of their mother . throughout the play , the sisters struggle over who remembers which events more clearly , only to find that individual memories and experiences can become fuzzy , and that family stories , many times re - told , become free game to be re - shaped and detailed until the story develops so far that it surpasses the memory . playwright shelagh stephenson states that when she started writing the the memory of water , it was set at a family birthday party . during the development process , stephenson lost her mother , and the play took a dramatic turn , shifting from one family event to another . yet the age old tradition of recollecting family stories , bound by love , laughter , anger , and tears is still the center of this bittersweet , life affirming comedy .
stephenson used to be an actress , and she is accordingly generous , giving each performer a big scene or two . but few could counter the staginess of mother - as - apparition , a projection of the haunted mary , who gets the majority of the play’s musings on memory . ( stephenson’s metaphoric equation , inspired by a british tv documentary about the properties of water , makes vi the “water” whose presence cannot be altered or diluted , no matter how much her children try to filter out her memory . ) gwynne , a first - rate actress , must also work through several second - act revelations that overload the play ; her talk of “a half - imagined childhood” poignantly evokes the resonant drama that elsewhere remains half - written .
twilight zone series 2 . episode 6a . king nine will not return . drove me mad for nearly 30yrs trying to find this . i had the memory of it but not the title . i thought it was a film too .
we’re so sucked in by the storytelling that we don’t even realise how outlandish the concept behind the shape of water really is . it goes without saying that audiences will struggle to keep a dry eye when it gets to the film’s heart - tugging final reel .
in a play like his own superb “dead funny , ” director terry johnson made comedy and cruelty flip sides of the same bitter coin , and “memory of water” clearly wants to strike a comparable delicate balance . but for every stiff encounter johnson stages another — the coffin - carrying , for one — that is disconcertingly broad . was the intention to jettison the cliches of the memory play , atmosphere and wistfulness included ? the result is a play top - heavy with metaphor and spare on feeling ; in the juggling act between the serious and the comic , it’s the laugh track that has won .
three sisters converge for their mother’s funeral in “the memory of water , ” a first play from shelagh stephenson that evokes numerous memories , not all of them helpful . this is the sort of play you feel you’ve seen before , and the truth is that you have — on tv . though the tonier comparisons might be to catherine hayes ( “skirmishes” ) , edward albee or even chekhov , the abiding feel is of a wearyingly bitchy sitcom .
thanks for all the information that has appeared here . i have also been trying to retrieve a copy of the film , and if memory serves , the title was
soul survivor
, not
sole survivor
. this would also make more sense in light of the survival of the souls but not the actual flesh and blood crew members .
at times , the shape of water teeters on the brink of extreme kitsch . it’s the kind of fantastical story that you’d expect to be told in graphic novel or animated form , not in a live action film . del toro , though , is such a flamboyant and resourceful director that he makes the movie work . watery metaphors abound .
soul survivor is not the film . i remember seeing sole survivor at the time it was shown on tv in the 70 ' s and was disappointed that it wasn ' t the film i remembered . the film as i remember was in black and white , my parents only had colour tvs , and only at the end of the film the crew realised they were dead . no scenes of helicopters and no scenes of rescue .

every week , i look at the tv film listings in the hope of finding this film , trying to remember its name , every week the same nagging disappointment that i can never find it .
i have a video of this film . it is indeed sole survivor starring shatner and basehart .

three sisters converge for their mother ' s funeral in
the memory of water ,
a first play from shelagh stephenson that evokes numerous memories , not all of them helpful . this is the sort of play you feel you ' ve seen before , and the truth is that you have - - on tv . though the tonier comparisons might be to catherine hayes (
skirmishes
) , edward albee or even chekhov , the abiding feel is of a wearyingly bitchy sitcom .
the playwright like the three sisters in the memory of water , ms . stephenson hails from the north country . she was born in tyneside , england and studied drama at manchester university , where she spent time studying acting before focusing on writing full - time . ms . stephenson has written five original plays for bbc radio , including darling peidi , the anatomical venus , and five kinds of silence , which won the writer ' s guild award for best original drama . one of ms . stephenson ' s other plays , an experiment with an air pump , which played last year at the dallas theater center , was a joint winner of the 1997 peggy ramsay award . ms . stephenson went on to have her radio play , five kinds of silence , produced on the stage to rave reviews in london during the summer of 2000 . her newest play , ancient lights , opened november 29 , 2000 at the hampstead theatre , which also premiered the memory of water in 1996 .
emmi : i have attended a japanese tea ceremony , and my impression was that every detail is given a lot of thought and attention , water included . the idea that the purity of water is particularly important for tea - making is something i first encountered when reading about the history of tea in china . so it is not my own idea , but i adopted it for the book and amplified it , because it seemed appropriate for a water - deprived future . and yes , the tea ceremony does become a metaphor for life , and possibly also for different belief systems : if the form is kept immaculate but the essence lost and carved hollow , any belief system or ritual intended as meaningful will run as empty as a vessel without water . this is reflected in noria’s conflict with the corrupt tea master who judges her graduation ceremony .
emmi : i could definitely see memory of water as a film . in fact , as a teenager my dream was to be a filmmaker , and i think my interest in cinema has crucially influenced my writing . if i get stuck , i often imagine the scenes as a film i’m watching . my theatre background has taught me a lot about story structures , dramatic tension and character motivation , but the cinematic approach owes everything to my long - abandoned filmmaking dreams ! i would love to see what shape the story would take in the hands of a skilled screenwriter and director .
ok all , definitive answer time as i have been obsessed with this film for years . the film is indeed sole survivor a 1970 tv movie . the reason why the difficulty in identifying it is that there are two versions of the film . the original tv american movie had the survivors knowing they were ghosts and haunting the survivor . the film was released in europe to the cinemas in 71 , and was re - edited so the crew did not know they were dead , thus changing the entire aspect of the film . love both versions and have a very grainy vhs copy of the bbc in about ' 82 , hope this helps paul
the film the original question is trying to find is , indeed ,
sole survivor
, a 1971 tv movie that i have on tape and just watched again tonight ; it ' s the only film of its kind . it ' s one of the best of the tv movies , and one of the earliest . please contact me if you ' re looking for a copy of it .
you can’t help but gargle in admiration at the extraordinary visual flamboyance of the shape of water . writer - director guillermo del toro may have taken his inspiration from creature from the black lagoon but this is no low budget sci - fi pastiche . it’s a film with the grace and formal ambition of one of those vincente minnelli musicals in which the camera never stops moving . this is a monster movie but it plays like a beauty and the beast - style romance .
sole survivor
i ' ve been looking for it as well . based on the recovery of lady be good as mentioned above . the two tv movies are so similar they tend to blend in my memory as well .
the name of the film was sole survivor and if you go to you tube and type in sole survivor you can sit back and enjoy the movie .
the biggest surprise of this film awards season is arguably hell or high water , a modern - day western shot in new mexico by a scottish filmmaker . at tonight’s critics’ choice awards , the movie is nominated for best picture , director , screenplay , acting ensemble and supporting actor ( jeff bridges , ben foster ) .
if anyone says its the film ' sole survivor ' again i ' ll either shoot myself or kill the wife ! its not the film ' sole survivor ' ! ! my family had a colour tv and that film was in black & white . the search goes on : = (
i remember the film and have been trying to find the name of the film for years . i don ' t believe it to be sole survivor , the film was clearly a sixties or even fifties movie . the crew of the doomed plane crash landed in the desert , all the crew appeared to have survived the crash , trying to make the best of it and await for their rescue , when it arrives they are discovered dead in and around the wreckage , and then one by one disappear ; a bit like the film really . i would to see it again though .
toward the end of matias bize ’s “ the memory of water , ” an attractive couple unable to cope with the death of their child take to the woods to talk things over . next to the sylvan chaos of “antichrist , ” these two telenovela - pretty parents have it easy : there are no smashed genitals or talking foxes here to get in the way of a reconciliation , just the enormous guilt of what both parties could have done to prevent the drowning of their 4 - year - old son . bize has a gift for making audiences identify with such emotionally trying situations , though his oh - so - polite fifth feature errs on the side of good taste , and it’s a bit of a yawn by comparison — not only to holy terror lars von trier , but to bize’s previous work as well .
the location map attached to the call sheet of
the first duty
.
it could be a film called lost horizon . it was made in 1973 .
check out highlights from some of the best recent trailers including mandy , the predator , zoe , and the king of thieves .
this rings a bell with me . i ' m pretty sure it was an episode of the twilight zone , though , not a film as such . if memory serves it may even have been directed by steven spielberg . the crew of us airmen had crashed their ww2 plane when a bomb got stuck in the bomb bay . they could not die properly until their remains had been found but their ghosts were accessible though some sort of time portal . the last scene was of the final guy being discovered beneath the wrecked tail plane .
this sounds a bit similar to a robert powell film of 20 years ago , based on james herbert ' s book
the survivor
.
how curious to find i am only one member of a sect who was profoundly touched by seeing this film as a child in the 70s .
i sent this very enquiry to
empire
film magazine last year and they confirmed that the film is indeed sole survivior , a tv movie made in the early 1970 ' s and starring , amongst others , william shatner . unfortunately the film is not available on video . . . . . . . if anyone knows of a way to obtain a copy i ' d love to have one . it ' s a great film .
i recall the scene with richard bassheart driving drunk off into the desert and the crew disappearing as described that they wanted all of them to be found , that in trying to solve the mystery of the missing crew they find the personal effects of each on the plane including a harmonica . that the searchers couldn ' t understand why the crew thought they were over water until they figured out the moonlight and clouds that the sand looked like water . and that bassheart was the navigator that bailed out on them and that the crew haunted , i swear it was a 70 ' s tv movie , it may have been color , as others have said i don ' t recall the title or having seen it again . it led me to the book about the real crash of the lady be good and its facts . it might have been mentioned in the opening or closing credits .
the film in question isn ' t
the survivor
( the film of the james herbert book ) . the plot for the survivor was that one man survives a plane crash ( i think totally unharmed ) and in his struggle to come to terms with this uncovers the fact that the plane was sabotaged / blown up . the twist is that he didn ' t survive . he is a manifestation of the will of all the lost souls and as soon as the truth is reveals he dies .
i agree with the men not knowing that they are dead and remember the film as . so g in b & w ; for most of it and only being in colour at the end when the rescuers arrive and i think john wayne ' s son was in it . i so have been trying to find out the name of this film for years
the title refers to homeopathy – the way water
remembers
healing properties . stephenson suggests our brains work similarly , saving what they need to keep us going . any self - centricity – and these sisters have plenty – is rooted in vulnerability .
spanish - language stars elena anaya and benjamin vicuña play a couple in mourning in the latest film from chilean director matias bize ( ' the life of fish ' ) .
wow ! can ' t believe i ' ve found this thread , i ' ve wondered about this film for years . there are definitely two different films being discussed here , mind you , and the original answer to the question posed is not sole survivor . i can remember watching this film and i can also remember what it ' s called . there is a very good reason why no one can find it in any database and that ' s because it shares the name of a very famous film which will dominate any internet search results . the film is called catch 22 , not to be confused by the famous 1970 film of the same name . saw it listed sometime back so settled down to watch . of course it was the 1970 film i was watching . disappointment . hope this helps .
i remember watching this film as well , way back in the 80s . i simply cannot remember the name of the film . however , i remember a scene from the film where a patrol came across the wreckage . all the airmen were standing to attention and then all of a sudden they realised that nobody could see them . they are all sitting around and one of time they disappeared as they were being buried . if i remember rightly , there was one guy left , i don ' t think his body was found though . damn good film , wish i could get my hands on it .
it sounds very like a book by james herbert called survivor ( or the survivor ) - not sure if they ever made a film of it though .
there seems to be a number of variants . i recalled a black and white version and the actors having the ' perfect english ' reminiscent of the old war films - i recall the crew sitting under a sheet under the wing of the plane and talking about not being able to leave the dessert . . . maybe its the 1968 one mentioned by the film buff in spain
whatever the name of this film is , one thing i remember is the ghosts of the departed crew being in awe of a helicopter that turns up at the crash site , with one of them remarking that it ' hangs in the air just like a bird ' or something like that . suggesting that when they died there were no helicopters in service .
sorry , dino , but the urltoken you quote is the one made in 1970 starring the same cast . ( see
urltoken
web site ) however the film we are trying to find had no survivors . not a sole survivor . the film was about a crew who had all been killed in the crash and were all unknowingly ghosts around the plane . at the end of the film , all the ghosts had gone due to all the bodies being found . it certainly wasn ' t
sole survivor
.
sorry i too am unable to find the film or title most are looking for , black and white for sure . saw it as a kid and like the ghosts i too have been waiting ever since , best film ever .
i too have been trying to find this film for years - and am still confused ! i agree entirely with those that say there were no survivors , and particularly with what ray mitcham says - that is spot on . thing is i think the title was flight of the phoenix , but obviously not the film with jimmy stewart in , maybe a made for tv film with the same name ? but also - not an episode of anything , it was a full length flm . so - anyone out there know about the film ray and i are talking about !
flight of the phoenix has been offered by a number of people during my quest . . . but , of course hollywood is about to release a new desecration - erm , version of that classic .
emmi : i did not . i remember specifically trying to find contemporary novels about climate change when i was writing memory of water , and not finding many – i think ice people by maggie gee , solar by ian mcewan and the carbon diaries by saci lloyd were among the few i came across that dealt directly with the imagined impact of climate change . i would have been overjoyed to come across a website like yours at the time . i think the resources and awareness have made big leaps in the past few years , and today the list would be much bigger . i think i only first heard of climate fiction in 2013 , when my book had already been out in finland for well over a year . the term piqued my interest immediately , and i think it’s a great way of describing certain types of speculative fiction .
this is a story about social integration . when vietnamese father and son go to the river ebro in spain they reminisce about their roots in vietnam . it is a precious time and the first time they have discussed this together . through the age - old artistic tradition of water puppet theatre , their story unfolds as the father wants to remember and the son wants to forget
how frustrating ! i was hoping by the time i had got to the end of the discussion that the film would have been found . i told my daughter that she must watch ' flight of the pheonix ' as i thought that it was this film , and i was so disappointed that it was the wrong film . i remember that they crashed because they thought the heat from the dessert sand was the sea , and they were trying to crash into the sea . and i remember the twist at the end being so good as i didn ' t have a clue that they were really all dead until the army came to clear the wreckage and they were invisible ghosts ! i would love to see this film again . . . has been a long time .
i too remember a film ' sole surviver ' about a man that lost his wife and daughter in a plane accident . when he tries to investigate he is pursued by some black op federal agents . the main agent was played by billy zane . the plot was of mind control and child experiments in a secret lab where people ' s minds were remotely controlled . the pilot of the commercial aircraft purposely crashed the plane because of his mind being controlled by one of the kids . in the end the man rescues a young girl , his own daughter ' s age , who was the ' sole surviver ' of the crash . the film was a two - part tv film never reproduced for dvd or vcr . i have tried to obtain copies to no avail . if anyone does get a lead on this film and how to obtain copies , please let me now . it is an incredible film , not to be confused with ' soul survivor ' .
i also remember this movie from a long time ago , and like everyone can not remember the name or anyone who starred in it . . . there is parts of sole survivor on you tube for anyone wanting to watch it for 10 minutes , it may jog someones memory ' s of whether this is the mystery movie that spookily stuck in all our minds .
i too am haunted by the memory of this film . and i agree , the title was catch 22 . it must have been in the late 1960 ' s on tv . i remember their spirits disappearing traumatically one at a time as their bodies were discovered . and the poor soul that is left behind by himself for eternity . . . that ' s what ' s so haunting about it . my question is this : how is it possible , this day and age , for a film that was so unique and admired to simply vanish with no trace ?
emmi : yes , i am now writing my second novel . it is not related to memory of water in any way , but is a standalone set in an entirely different fictional universe . it could probably be best described as a mystery story with elements of urban fantasy , alternative history and new weird ( or perhaps finnish weird ) . it takes place on an island that is slowly drowning due to floods and where dreaming is forbidden . like noria , the main character is a young woman carrying secrets . hers have more to do with identity , but environmental concerns are present , too .
i have just watched ' sole survivor ' on google videos and after only a few minutes realised it was crap and definitely not the film i remember . the film that was so good we were all moved by , began with the plane flying over what they think is the sea but is the rolling sands of the desert . they think they can jump out with a lifeboat . they do not know they are dead right to the end of the film , which is what makes it so good and definitely not like the weak ' sole survivor ' plot . i think it is ' flight of the ? ' because i was surprised when i discovered it wasn ' t ' flight of the phoenix ' as an adult . please stop telling those of us who have seen this amazing film , that it is sole survivor . it definitely isn ' t ! ! ! !
in “ the memory of water , ” a beautiful woman’s eyes well with tears as she fusses with the pool cover behind the house where she , a spanish translator named amanda ( elena anaya , the plastic - surgery patient in pedro almodovar’s “the skin i live in” ) , and her architect husband , javier ( chilean tv star benjamin vicuna ) , were happiest . now she can hardly stand to look at javier , whose features remind her of their dead son , pedro . it’s not immediately stated , but one can infer that the swimming pool played some role in their current predicament — if not from the opening scene , then from the look architect javier gives a bit later while helping a pair of family friends plan their dream home ( when the couple mentions a pool , he tenses up ) .
mary : though i found the entire novel fascinating and gorgeously written , there were several very powerful scenes that i just kept going back to read . these scenes emphasized memory , secrets , reflection , imagination . one was noria imagining what snow must have been like . regarding reflection , early in the book there was a scene wherein noria was looking at a dry riverbed . she imagined past - times when the river flowed with water . she imagined in that past - time a woman standing at the river’s edge , able to see her reflection in the water . noria wondered if the woman would go home and change even one thing about her life–which i thought maybe eluded to us , reflecting on ourselves , our future , and mitigating climate change and environmental problems . the illustration was perfect . do you have some thoughts about this particular scene and what you were portraying ?
i just watched ' sole survivor ' on youtube and whilst this is similar to the movie i remember - it is not it . this seems to be a re - make of the original - whatever that was . the music is not correct - it was a weird tune that was whistled if my memory serves me right . this was 30 years ago ! there were also no us troops carrying bodies with american flags draped over them at the end . i would have remembered this . please let me know if anyone unearths the original movie - which was probably from the 50 ' s going by my memory of the actors . there was a plane that flew overhead though but they could not get their attention .
also known as the memory of water , director lewis gilbert ' s low - key drama ( based on a play by shelagh stephenson ) centers on three sisters who return home following their mother ' s death , and the memories that bind them . desperate to discover who remembers which events with the most clarity , sisters theresa ( julie walters ) , mary ( joanne whalley ) and catherine ( victoria hamilton ) soon discover that the real truth about their family lies much deeper than any one person can recall . as the sisters memories slowly surface , it soon becomes apparent that no one version of any tale provides a definitive answer to their questions regarding their past . ~ jason buchanan , rovi
well , ive just watched ' sole survivor ' on dvd . its the one with william shatner playing an air force crash investigator . in this film it is clear that the crew know they are ghosts right at the start , and that its been seventeen years since the crash . the film i remember has the whole crew ( no survivors ) believing that they are still alive . it doesn ' t come to light that they are all dead until right at the end of the film when a helicopter turns up at the crash site and freaks the crew out ( no helicopters in general service at the time of the crash ) and the helicopter crew cant see the ( dead ) crewmen . there is a scene in sole survivor with a helicopter but this is half way into the film , long after the plane wreck has been found , and not the initial discovery .
i remember seeing a movie late one night many years ago where the crew of a ww2 american bomber are hanging around the wreck of their aircraft in the desert . every time they try to leave they always end up back at the wreck . i seem to remember too that they were very fastidious about where they left their equipment . i must have asked a hundred people if they remember the film , but no luck . this has been the only place where people have described the story the way i remember it . the film sounds like
sole survivor
1969 tv movie staring william shatner which used the wreck of a b25 - j mitchell bomber . i hope this is the same film your thinking of . is it available on video anywhere ?
two years ago , venice days attendees voted bize’s 2011 relationship drama “the life of fish” their favorite film of the decade , and though that movie won a goya and was selected by chile to compete in the academy awards , it has never been released in the united states . like “life , ” “memory” also premiered in venice days , and though bize’s characters would be the first to admit that life’s not fair , it’s a shame american audiences have never been in the position to sample this talented director’s work — which is characterized by subtlety and care , rather than brazen tearjerker tactics , even though all of his films are “about crying” ( the title of his third feature ) in one way or another .
plot : the film follows winston churchill ' s early days as prime minister while hitler closes in on britain during world war ii .
oh how disappointing , i was hoping there would be an answer for me here . i too remember watching this film as a child in the 1970 ' s an have been trying to find it for years . i ' ve seen sole survivor and flight of the phoenix . it is most certainly neither of these . the film i ' m looking for was black & white and the airmen did not know they were dead . that ' s the big twist at the end . i ' m fairly sure it was a feature film too , not an episode of twilight zone . it was shown on a weekend afternoon . i hope someone can get to the bottom of this one !
i remember with clarity , a boy 9 or 8 roasting some bird eggs on a hot rock and eating for survival after a plane crash and gets to be a survivor in the film . but can ' t remember film name . can anybody ?
this page has just answered a quest i have had for over a decade - i ' ve asked all sorts , including those who title themselves film afficiondos its weird to see that so many other people have been trying to find the title of this film as well - a bit like our own episode of the twilight zone . i can rest easy now . thanks again .
hi everyone . i watched the flight of the phoenix recently all the way to the end hoping it was the film i remembered - waiting for the twist ! course it didn ' t happen . the description of sole / soul survivor just don ' t seem to fit in with the fact no - one was alive and the twist definitely came right at the end . i just wish i could see it again . . .
the set design by takis suggests snowfall and salt flats – both memories of water in their own way . nikolai foster ' s production scuffs some of the play ' s subtleties . scant family resemblance and what could be a 20 - year age gap make it hard to believe that mary jo randle ' s stern teresa and amanda ryanas the rudderless catherine shared overlapping childhoods . when they put on vi ' s dresses , each looking like a different quality street , foster trades the eeriness of triple vision for a cheap visual gag . it ' s a mark of the strength of stephenson ' s writing that it survives any such dilution .
not looking good - reply to query to the american film institute : thank you for your interest in afi . we are sorry to report that we have been unable to identify the film you described . to continue your quest , you might wish to contact the following organizations with your question : library of congress motion picture and television reading room : urltoken academy of motion picture arts and sciences margaret herrick library : urltoken the reference librarians at these organizations may be able to direct you to the film you seek . we wish you success in your search . best , the afi staff
sole survivor is indeed the film in question , although you might not recognise it from its description in most databases . they tend to emphasise the come - uppance of the now senior aviator who was responsible for the crash , rather than the more interesting supernatural aspect that everyone actually remembers the film for . any similarity to the twilight zone episode is probably down to the fact rod serling also wrote sole survivor . it ' s likely that he drew inspiration from the discovery of the crashed wwii us bomber ' lady be good ' in the libyan desert during the late ' 50 ' s .
the movie i ' m trying to find the name of is airliner crashes at airport and the pilot walks away from the crash in a daze . then end of the movie he is found strapped in his seat in the cockpit .
mary : speaking of reflection , it can be shattered in not only water but in mirrors of history that aren’t truthful . noria and her friend sanja , when searching through a midden grave , uncover old - world recordings , which hint of a truth stronger than ones given by the novel’s military and superpower china–which , like many governments even today , edit history to “correct the course” that has taken many wrong turns that lead to dystopian or dysfunctional societies . even the pod books mentioned in your novel are easily revised . the old recordings speak of an expedition in which explorers from another time find lots of fresh water in the “lost lands” , a place that is still a mystery to noria and sanja . i think part of the problem with climate change is that we have already revised our history and are , in parts of the world , in denial that climate change exists or that it will hurt future generations . only if we allow ourselves to see the truth will we potentially do better for our descendents . to allow this truth , perhaps it will take some exploring , reflection ?
thank you one and all ! i ' ve been trying to remember the name of this film for 20 years ! have now checked ' sole survivor ' on imdb and it is the right title . excellent !
it ' s called sole survivor . . i remembered it as a kid . you can watch the film in its entirety at urltoken urltoken
mary : your book is slow and persistent . every detail you shape has meaning . you incorporate rocks and winds and insects and all matter of life into the plot , the movement of the story . the narrator , noria , is keen and observant and caring and strong , a great heroine for a young adult audience but meaningful and inspirational to people of all ages . she is observant of the shape of time , water , and memories . she feels that imprints of the past are strong currents around her . i guess this isn’t a real question , but my own observations that your writing excellently portrays memories , secrets , and imprints . can you talk a little about deciding on how these factors carve your novel ?
i disagree that it was
sole survivor
. that was a different story where a survivor of a crash became a highranking officer who had wrongly claimed that his plane had gone down in the mediterranean . the film ( definitely not a twilight zone story ) was set in the desert and consisted of the dead crew of the crashed aircraft not knowing they were dead until their colleagues suddenly began disappearing as their bodies were found . the final
survivor
was almost left alone by the plane until his body was found and his ghost released . i still don ' t know the name of the film and would love to know it .
this film is not sole survivor . it was a black and white film . the crew did not know they were dead . it was only when each of them was discovered that it dawned on them and they disappeared . unfortunately there appear to be 3 films that have the same sort of plot . . . . . does anyone else remember this one ? ? ? ? ? ?

proofs of all copy when it has been set are sent to the sub - editor ' s room , and it should be a definite rule that every sub should read in type the stories which he had dressed up , and give the ' o . k . ' before they finally go forward into the paper .

the work on the sub - editor ' s desk on a morning paper begins early afternoon , and the first member of it to put in an appearance is the copy - taster ( usually the news editor himself ) . his initial job is to go through the vast amount of copy which has already arrived ; to discard the material which his paper will not be likely to use , and to assess the value of what still remains after his preliminary survey .

the first hour or two are fairly heavy - going because the composing room has to be supplied with a continuous flow of material and any hold - up in the early stages may have disastrous reactions later in the evening . but gradually , the piles of raw material grow less as the sub editor , having completed the preparation of a news - story , submits it to the chief for his final approval before it is sent out to be set .

if he is wise he will have consulted the news - room to discover how much editorial space is available and what later stories can be covered ; he works out a rough idea of the space available for various sections of the news . he knows , for example , that it is hopeless for the sub - editors to send out to the composing room a column report of a murder trial when there is no possible chance of publishing more than a quarter of a column .
having passed his proofs and having dealt with his last piece of copy the work of the sub - editor is complete . but if he is keen on his job , he will , when he arrives on the following afternoon , examine the other papers to see how his rivals dealt with the stories with which he was especially concerned . the man who reads only his own paper will not go very far .
by the time his colleagues have arrived in the next few hours - and duties are staggered because the room must be staffed throughout the night - the copy - taster has decided which man will cope with a particular piece of news and to what length the story shall run .

it may be that there ' s a narrative reason for making sebastian act like such a chauvinistic git , but in gameplay terms it ' s much simpler .
there are other people with you , but it ' s not a co - op experience ,
bergman says , reassuringly .
the emphasis of the game is very much on sebastian ' s character and sebastian ' s survival . you won ' t have to worry about escort missions or anything like that . it ' s a very directed survival horror experience .
even when the sub - editors , on early turns , go home , there is still a skeleton staff on duty ready to prepare news which may arrive after the first edition has gone to the press and which must he included in the later editions .

the sub may find that he has to cut the story ; he has a shrewd idea of the amount of space available and of the importance - or otherwise - of the story . if space is ' tight ' , he may have to cut out certain paragraphs , selecting them with care so that he does not upset the balance or coherence of what has been written ; but if there is plenty of room , he will ' let it run ' - that is , he will send the copy out for setting into type on the linotype machines without cutting it .
well , we could take the news of the bush to the city , using modern technology .
two things are immediately clear . despite his tin ear for dialogue , mikami still knows how to stage tension . the sequence that follows has a pitch perfect ebb and flow , from a nail - biting attempt to steal the keys needed for escape , to a panicked chase through hospital corridors strewn with gurneys and other obstacles , then back to a tense waiting game as sebastian hides in a locker and watches as his chainsaw - wielding pursuer tears the room apart looking for him . then it ' s back out into the corridors , where the chase ramps up again . whether creeping , scrambling or diving for the safety of an elevator , the chainsaw striking sparks as it misses sebastian ' s exposed back , it ' s all expertly , breathlessly choreographed .

sebastian finds a bloodied survivor , apparently one of the hospital ' s doctors .
it was him ,
the man intones .
it couldn ' t be .
there ' s a sudden attack and sebastian is knocked out . when he comes round , he ' s hanging upside down from a meathook . a masked brute casually saunters past and begins hacking up a corpse . as the butcher wanders back to his bench with whatever meaty prize he ' s claimed , player control returns . swinging to retrieve a knife embedded in another hanging body , you cut yourself free and enter a stealthy escape sequence .
today ' s weekly newspaper , with a circulation of about 1 , 600 copies , is printed in the rural city of tamworth and is sold in bourke shops .
overwhelmed , he runs downstairs and things get weird . the cellar is now replaced with grey concrete corridor where previously you couldn ' t get through . this is another of the game ' s selling points , apparently : a game world that changes and shifts in real time . hallucination ? parallel dimension ? there ' s no time to contemplate the mystery , as the demo ends with a tease of a boss fight against a squelchy , screeching thing that looks like a cross between left 4 dead ' s witch and a giant crab .
it ' s no surprise the plight of the soccer team has received global media attention . but it does raise some interesting questions about how we extend empathy and concern to people we don ' t know .
as a young man in the early 1950s , mr povah trained as a hand compositor , physically building the lines of lead letters that became the typeface of the news .

all the emotional baggage means that the rail and land links between singapore and johor baru are also emotional choke points . the continuing hassles of moving the couple of hundred metres between singapore and johor reveal the hesitations the two neighbours still hold about each other .
it was there when henry lawson arrived in bourke in search of the real australia ; it was there during the wool boom , the great depression and through the rabbit plague .
speaking of which , here comes the horror .
that smell !
sebastian mutters as he ventures inside the hospital , where gore has already been smeared all over the floors and walls .
ugh , it smells like blood !
he gasps . as quotable dialogue goes , it ' s no
master of unlocking
but it ' s close . as with so many survival horror games , it ' s hard to tell if it ' s this corny on purpose , or if this is yet another example of what happens when western pulp horror gets filtered through a japanese prism . either way , this is definitely a shinji mikami game .
sebastian finally finds a way out of the hospital , only to discover that the world outside has been utterly destroyed . the ruined city stretches into the distance , all chasms and crumbling skyscrapers . it ' s a nice apocalyptic note in a genre that generally keeps its plot developments at a more personal level .
the first section we see comes from the very start of the game . our detective hero , sebastian , is responding to an emergency at a mental hospital . police cars are abandoned outside , and all the weapons are missing . he tells his female partner she ' s not coming inside .
pulling rank ?
she asks .
just watch the door ,
he snaps . sebastian seems like an arsehole , and the fact that he ' s wearing a 1940s private eye trenchcoat without a hint of irony doesn ' t help .
the western herald was established in the darling river town in 1887 and has recorded droughts and floods , stories of boom and bust and the highs and lows of life in the community .
the problem has little to do with logic , everything to do with emotion . singapore and malaysia long ago went through a bitter divorce . as with so many divorces , a lot of things still need to be sorted out . the two sides start out like civilised adults , doing sensible negotiations . then the emotions well up . voices are raised . tempers and temperatures jump . instead of adults , two squabbling kids crash through the middle of the room .
if the new railway deal holds , by 2018 singapore ' s mass rapid transit system will reach across the causeway to johor . it will be an achievement that is logical and logistically simple , yet will carry an amazing historical import .
the second thing that is apparent is how nice this game looks , or at least as nice as a game knee deep in viscera can be . the butcher manages to take a slice out of sebastian ' s leg , causing him to limp and stumble . it ' s a familiar mechanic , dating back to resident evil 2 , but the animation is superb and really sells that nightmarish panic of needing to move faster than you ' re physically able . the lighting is also stunning , and small details like the movement of curtains and cloth all feel very real . it ' s a seriously nice looking game , presented in a cinematic 2 . 35 : 1 ratio , and running on a version of id tech 5 that mikami ' s tango gameworks studio has modified specifically for this game .
but all the time he was wandering , he kept track of the changes that were going on in the newspaper game and now he has made the long loop back to his first profession .
back upstairs , more monsters start to approach the building . as they mass outside , forming a mob that advances up towards the house with murderous intent , it ' s hard not to be reminded of resident evil 4 ' s los ganados . sebastian is able to lay traps to keep the creatures at bay , placing them in front of the windows to finish off anything that clambers over the sill . sadly , we don ' t get to actually see what sort of effect the traps have . even though we hear them going off , bergman is now visibly struggling to keep sebastian alive as the enemies swarm in .
michelle edwards : the vocabulary and grammar of spoken south african english are coated in a fine layer of afrikaans dust . it ' s been there so long that most of us no longer notice
by way of illustration , the demo now shifts to later in the game , and what appears to be an old timber - framed house where sebastian explores the ground floor and cellar for ammo and health syringes . it ' s in the murky cellar that we get our first glimpse at what is presumably the game ' s basic enemy . pitched somewhere between zombies , the shambling fleshbags of silent hill and the body modified cenobites of hellraiser , the method by which you dispatch them is comfortingly familiar : shoot them in the head . the smart player , however , knocks them over and sets them alight with matches to save ammo .
scarcity of resources is a big theme of the game ,
says hines .
you ' re not going to find yourself with a gun and lots and lots of ammo .
hobart ' s old zoo is famous as being where the last thylacine in captivity died , but in its heyday people could view elephants , zebras , monkeys and even see a girl walking her pet leopard . what happened to the beaumaris zoo ?
and there the demo ends . it ' s certainly as pure as survival horror gets , with an emphasis on keeping the player vulnerable and outmatched , plus the obligatory side order of confusing mind games and grisly gross stuff . for fans who have been left unsatisfied by recent entries in the resident evil and silent hill franchises , this definitely seems like it ' ll tick all the right boxes .

what is noticeable is that everything we ' ve just seen has been incredibly linear , essentially a long chase sequence with no apparent room to deviate from the path .
the game tends to be divided into two separate sections ,
bergman explains .
there are horror areas and exploration areas . the exploration areas emphasise the survival aspect of going around to every possible area and trying to gather as much health and items as possible . those are much more open . the horror areas are very , very confined and a little more linear .
the university of new england respects and acknowledges that its people , programs and facilities are built on land , and surrounded by a sense of belonging , both ancient and contemporary , of the world ' s oldest living culture . in doing so , une values and respects indigenous knowledge systems as a vital part of the knowledge capital of australia .
it would be good to see some hint that there ' s more to the evil within than what ' s being shown , however . when mikami made his name with resident evil , he did so not by giving players something they expected , but something they didn ' t . the evil within , by contrast , seems to be designed to give players exactly what they want . with the grass roots success of minimalist games like amnesia and slender , it just feels that the cutting edge of horror gaming has moved on from the template so lovingly being revived here . if this is truly to be mikami ' s final game as director , it would be nice if he could leave horror gaming with a truly terrifying new benchmark to aspire to , not one last victory lap inspired by past glories .

they prefer to rely on the judgement of the reporters to produce the kind of copy that the paper wants , and they realise how heart - breaking it can be for the reporter who feels that he had written a first - class piece of copy to see a version of it in the paper which he cannot recognise as his handiwork and which he certainly does not appreciate .

this means that some of the stories already in the paper must either be removed bodily or cut and trimmed , in order to provide the blank spaces required . this is a job which calls for great skill and tact and it has to be accomplished on the spot . the easy way is to cut the last paragraph , but this may be disastrous if piece news is being told in chronological order .
