Prelude

About This Movie

So, there's this film called Prelude, which is kind of an oddball in the romance and sci-fi sphere. The way Alex opens up to Marion about life's heavy thoughts creates this unique blend of intimacy and existential dread. You feel the weight of their connection, but there's also that unsettling atmosphere as they grapple with their origins. It’s not flashy, but has some practical effects that fit the tone really well. The pacing is a bit unconventional, but it pulls you into their world and makes you think about the bigger picture. It's got a certain indie charm, you know? Not everyone knows about it, but the performances really stand out, especially in those intimate moments.

Prelude is rare, often overlooked in the broader collector market. It's been released in limited formats, with early DVD copies becoming a bit of a collector's item over the years. The film's distinct atmosphere and themes have garnered a niche following, but finding a good condition copy can be tricky. As it stands, this film tends to fly under the radar, making it an interesting piece for those who appreciate lesser-known gems.
