Science-fiction films are usually big-budget blockbusters more concerned with special effects than with character, but MOON goes the indie route, using a five-million-dollar budget to create a thought-provoking film. First-time feature director Duncan Jones wrote the part of Sam Bell, a miner living in isolation on the moon, with CHOKE's Sam Rockwell in mind, and it's perfect casting. MOON begins when Sam's three-year contract with Lunar Industries is almost up, and it isn't soon enough for the isolated man.
