As a teenager
with modernistic views, the 1953 film The Fly didn’t catch my interest at all.
It is that type of film I would never consider watching. Maybe I just don’t
like super old movies starring people with weird clothes and weird haircuts, I
don’t know. So as I watched the film, deep inside, I wanted it to the end
quickly. Even though, I decided to give it a chance and I was quite amused with
the creativity of people back then. All in all I think the plot though was
weird and funny.
I think the film
served as a warning so people will not use living things as test subjects and
do weird creepy experiments on them. I guess you could consider it as the
morality of the play: Never ever play with living creatures because we never
know what horrible possible things could happen.
It somehow
reflects on the views on Science and Technology during 1950s. From what I saw
on the film, i can conclude that during their time using humans or other living
things on dangerous and out of this world experiments is bad and immoral and as
of today I think that view is still accepted and practiced.
