I watched this movie in school years ago. My teacher is a huge fan and makes all her classes watch it. I loved the movie, but everyone in school hated it for some reason. We were 14 at that time and watched it in english, which isn't our native language. So maybe that's why. I had to love the movie in secret and later rewatched it with my parents. Now a lot of time has passed since I saw the movie and two days ago this theme song randomly popped into my head and has been playing on repeat since. At first I didn't know which movie the theme was from. I'm so happy to have found it. Love this music.
A lot of people from what I can gather think that this was some big budget Hollywood film, rather the opposite, it was an indie sci-fi film with a budget of $5 Million dollars, to put that into perspective, Danny Boyle made an indie sci film called sunshine in 2007, that had a budget of $50 Million, so, not a lot of money. I mean Kevin Spacey didn't want to do the voice of Gerty at first until he saw what they had done with this film. The vehicles and lunar surface were all models, it really proves that you don't need extravagant visual effects and high budget environments to create a masterpiece like this film.
