Hey guys what’s happening? Niyat here with film comics explained. As frequently requested, today we’ll be exploring Sphere, the 1998 sci-fi thriller and existential horror directed by Barry Levinson. Based on the novel of the same name by the legendary Michael Crichton, Sphere is a perplexing dive into the human psyche under tremendous stress, wrapped inside an extra-terrestrial enigma. Starring Dustin Hoffman, Samual L Jackson, Sharon Stone, Peter Coyote and Liev Schreiber, it follows a team of experts that are sent to investigate a mysterious spacecraft discovered at the bottom of the ocean. While both the novel and film begin as a science fiction mystery, the discovery of a large perfect sphere that appears to be extra-terrestrial in origin transform the story into a psychological thriller, one that forces our heroes to confront the wonder and terror of the human imagination. In this video, we’re going to explore the film, how it differs from the novel, what I think the origins and purpose of the sphere was, in addition to the meaning of its intentionally confusing ending that left me baffled as a kid.
