isn’t science-fiction. Except it is: In imagining 10 years later 30 years ago, the film’s prescience is both impressive and blurred by the slipstream of decades past, lost, as if in the same dream through which our protagonist Claire wanders, to undefined borders of time. Which makes sense in the aftermath of the fall of the Berlin Wall, how such a self-described “ultimate road movie” could so embrace the vastness the world now seemed to represent.
foresees plenty, from GPS for the casual traveler to search engines and the Y2K scare, but most apocalyptic is the film’s odd speculation over the obsession with social media with which we currently contend.
