Thanks, Abdellah, for sharing your very personal and painful life story with others. Not all are so talented, courageous and creative. Much love and best wishes. From a fellow gay African. ❤❤❤
This is by far David Cronenberg's BEST film, having seen most of his other offerings. I would imagine it was the most expensive he had made, and it shows, I believe he was one of those "independent" Directors before getting this studio film (probably the best of Hollywood studios - 20th century fox, that gave us - STAR WARS, ALIEN, PLANET OF APES , etc all classic science fiction). I don't align ALEN with SHIVERS the parallels are too vague, I sense some envy there. I wonder if Cronenberg and Paul Verhoeven have ever met, they have much in common- never afraid to shock, ground breaking & original plus they both make "Art house" films very cereal it's ironic to hear Cronenberg was going to direct TOTAL RECALL, as well.
love you guys and i would like soo much to have this opportunity but unfortunately they say i cant come to volunteer with hope some day i can. with all my best wishes from me abu mohammed ( Gomaa )
