Un blockbuster new age de haut vol, où l’action virile cohabite avec un conte enchanteur. Ce soir à 20h50 sur TCM Cinéma.
James Cameron's "Abyss" (1989), starring Ed Harris & Mary-Elizabeth Mastrantonio, is a New Age blockbuster combining action with an enchanting tale. Despite being a commercial failure, it is considered one of Cameron's most accomplished films, blending elements of "The Thing," "2001: A Space Odyssey," and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." The film contrasts peaceful civilians with paranoid, militaristic figures, suggesting a shift away from Cold War anxieties. While embracing New Age themes, Cameron maintains classic Hollywood entertainment principles, balancing wonder with masculine action.
