Cronenberg’s Cosmopolis
Protest Against the Future. David Cronenberg, the Canadian maestro of technological body horror, is set to release a new movie based on Don DeLillo’s novel of the same title. With an intriguing cast (Robert Pattison + Juliette Binoche), it’ll be interesting to see Cronenberg’s take on the fate of our networked digital future where ponzi-scheming bankers, boyish start-up billionaires rub shoulders with digital activists, protesters, ex-wives, & the momentum of capitalism.
