All Is Lost
Never give up.
During a solo voyage in the Indian Ocean, a veteran mariner awakes to find his vessel taking on water after a collision with a stray shipping container. With his radio and navigation equipment disabled, he sails unknowingly into a violent storm and barely escapes with his life. With any luck, the ocean currents may carry him into a shipping lane -- but, with supplies dwindling and the sharks circling, the sailor is forced to face his own mortality.

This unusual film has next to no dialog, relying instead on Robert Redford's acting skill. Having only one character protects against wokeness, so this mini-genre is quickly becoming my favorite.
The film is lambasted on Rotten Tomatoes with an audience score of 64%, because the character does everything wrong with respect to sailing. I got this, fam! He is senile! For example, when water starts pouring into his boat through a hole, he reacts very slowly (and stupidly). Just imagine Joe Biden in his place and it all makes sense. Imagine America as the boat, and the analogy is complete.
The director said the ending is not intentionally ambiguous and yet it is whatever each person thinks it is. Argh, what nonsense is this? I guess he means that the movie is like the double slit experiment: the director wrote it as an ambiguous wave, and yet each observer will see it go through either the left or right slit. He said that each viewer will interpret the ending in a way that is a reflection of oneself. My wife and I saw the ending in opposite ways, naturally. The film lives through the audience.
Come on in, the water is fine, with no wokeness or diversity!
