Tara’s book “Tips for Your Last Year on Earth” so instead of reading, we’re watching two movies about the last days on earth!
The first, WHITE NOISE, is a satirical contemplation of modern life, major fears and denying death in a Netflix Original Movie starring Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, and Don Cheadle. Directed by Noah Baumbach this movie premiered during the death throes of summer on August 31st 2022. And then premiered on Netflix at Thanksgiving, another time with family where you want to die.
And a movie that PEOPLE ALSO WATCHED…This 80’s classic is also about people’s last days of life on the planet, it’s NIGHT OF THE COMET– From 1984 it stars Catherine Mary Stewart and Kelli Maroney and is directed by Thom Eberhardt who also wrote and directed Captain Ron. Night of the Comet cost a mere 700 thousand dollars and made over 14million! Why hasn’t there been a TV Show about this last night on earth?
