1100 - The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957)
Manage episode 440197321 series 2779324
Balancing on the razor-thin edge between the pedantic “what would REALLY happen if a guy kept slowly shrinking?” with “sure nerd, but let’s still make it a fun story”, Jack Arnold directs a domestic drama, a survivalist story, and everything in between as he questions foundational questions of existing in his classic science fiction tale. Perceptions of safety, masculinity, and the infinite shift and fade in this allegory of manhood in the modern age.
