silent running

 

Both a classic of science fiction and a poignant meditation on the state of the planet. Directed by Douglas Trumbull and starring Bruce Dern in a tour-de-force performance, this film tells the story of Freeman Lowell, a botanist who’s tasked with caring for the last remaining forests of Earth, which have been preserved on a spaceship after the planet has become uninhabitable. But when the orders come down to destroy the forests and return the ship to commercial use, Lowell takes matters into his own hands, risking everything to save the trees he’s grown to love.

Trumbull’s groundbreaking use of miniatures and practical effects creates a sense of scale and wonder that’s still impressive today. But beyond its technical achievements, it speaks to the environmental concerns of its time and still resonates today. Dern’s performance is a marvel, imbuing Lowell with a sense of passion and conviction that’s both inspiring and heartbreaking. As relevant now as it was when it was released, it’s a powerful reminder of the importance of protecting our planet and the beauty that we stand to lose if we don’t.
