The World Is Round

About This Movie

The World Is Round, a curious piece from '94, takes you on a cerebral journey with Howard Hughes. It's got this intimate, almost claustrophobic feel, as we delve into his psyche. The internal monologue is both haunting and reflective, enhanced by James Godwin's voice-over, which adds a layer of depth. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like you're meant to linger on each thought. It’s not just a film; it's an exploration of isolation and genius, and the transitions between reality and the surreal, or as the film puts it, 'The Screening Room.' Not your conventional narrative, but that’s what makes it intriguing, right?

This film is a bit of an enigma in terms of availability. It was part of an experimental theater piece and has limited formats—mostly seen in niche collections and art house screenings. The scarcity and unique approach to storytelling have sparked interest among collectors who appreciate unconventional cinema. If you're into films that break the typical mold and challenge narrative forms, this might be one to track down.
