    Wonderful! A Science Fiction and Conservation Masterpiece! This is the True Widescreen Version!

    I first saw Silent Running when I was nine years old, and it made a tremendous impression on me - in fact, it was the first movie that actually blew me away. It was made in 1971, at the height of the conservation and back-to-the-land movement, and will teach you more about the importance of preserving nature than any ten college lectures. The visual effects by Douglas Trumbull, of the aircraft carrier-sized space ships with their forest and garden domes, and the daring escape through Saturn's Rings, are absolutely stunning. There are also three lovable little robots who help to take care of the giant ship and domes, while the lead character of Freeman Lowell, played by Bruce Dern, is one of the most believable and endearing heroes I have ever seen. He is willing to give everything, even ...

  • Silent Running, a 70's sci-fi classic!

    Classic 1970's tree hugger meets 2001 Space Odyssey. Set in the near future, Earths natural resources have been trashed. A fleet of cargo ships carrying the last surviving forests orbit out in space, waiting to re-green the Earth. The special effects are very well done from 1972 as are the cargo ships and domes. These are all models not computer graphics. There are 3 small robot assistants that are great, actual midgets inside. Also done well is the feeling of being on a space cargo ship. The acting is fairly good as Bruce Dern plays the tragic, nerdy eco-astronaut well. A couple of the other crew members are over done as being total jerks. The music makes me want to gag though. Smoke pot, hug a tree and skip around lyrics detract from the scenes. Overall a great sci-fi classic for sure!

  • Silent Running with Bruce Dern

    Before Star Wars, and Battlestar Galactica this film captured the visuals that so many of us imagined how life in space would look. Too bad the musical score didn't measure up. Don't expect space battles, however. This is a story about how the Earth has lost its beauty due to over population and no control over pollution. Set in space on a ship for growing forests in orbit around Saturn, Bruce Dern's acting was involving and managed to make this film one of my sci-fi favorites.

  • An engrossing, beautiful, flakey movie

    I have always been captivated by this movie. The visuals of the geodesic dome greenhouses travelling through space were unforgetable. The three robots Huey, Louie, and Dewey were the first non-human format robots I recall seeing in SciFi movies. The space hippie Bruce Dern was his usual flakey self. The plot is a little weak, but who cares. This was a major tree hugger movie, which I am not, but I love this movie. The extra material on the DVD I have is worth having, as I had no idea where the movie was actually filmed. Donning asbestos underwear for anticipated flames ..... I LOVED the soundtrack, especially the songs by Joan Baez. I still remember the day I bought the vinyl LP and got it home, 20 years ago. It was a clear, transluscent, clorophyl colored green color.

  • Environmental classic.

    This classic sci-fi film starring Bruce Dern is a classic tale of humanity vs. nature and the decision one man has to make. The DVD version is not high definition but well worth seeing if you can find a copy.
