It’s the start of a new month on Cinema on Tap which means a new theme. We’re looking ahead to Project Hail Mary as we discuss some Hopeful Sci-Fi!
First up, Robert Zemeckis’ Contact. Adapted from the novel by famed astronomer Carl Sagan, the film stars Jodie Foster as a scientist facing professional and spiritual difficulties after identifying a message from possible extra-terrestrial life. Taking the debates between science and religion seriously, the film co-stars Matthew McConaughey as a Christian author and political advisor who provides a counterpoint to some of her purely scientific opinions. Does the film successfully explore science and religion? Listen on to see what we think.
