Published: July 11, 2019, 3:12 p.m.

Alfonso Cuar\xf3n\u2019s apocalyptic masterpiece CHILDREN OF MEN is a modern classic\xa0starring Julianne Moore, Clive Owen, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Charlie Hunnam, and Michael Caine. His adaptation of P. D. James\u2019 novel of the same name differs significantly but stands on its own as breathtaking art and perhaps even rises above.\xa0

Topics: The horrors of U.S. detention centers, the effect of the long take \u201coners\u201d, the special rig necessary to get an iconic scene, the use of classic works of art hidden in the film, a story of a mishap that is the stuff of filmmaking legend, how Harry Potter paved the way for this movie to be made, and the completion of Theo Faron\u2019s character arc.
