  • The Box by Richard Matheson


    Fifty Books Project 2009Authority Authority: 131
    This is a collection of short stories. They are rather cerebral in cerebral. Most could be described as psychological dramas. For example, in "Button, Button" a man and his wife are given a button mounted on a box (think Deal or No Deal ) and told that if they push it they we be given a large sum of money if they ...

  • Watch This: Before The Box There Was ... Black Button


    CinematicalAuthority Authority: 763
    Its always hard to believe it when filmmakers say they had never seen or heard of another, similar film when they made theirs. Such is the case with Black Button , a 7-minute short from some aspiring Australians made for a mere $200 featuring a well dressed man who offers a person $10,000,000 if hell simply press ...

    The FlickcastAuthority Authority: 532
    About a week ago a colleague of mine asked why in the world I wanted to go see  The Box . I explained that I found the premise fascinating. What if you were told that if you pushed a certain button, you would get a million dollars, but there is a catch. When you push the button, somebody you do not know will die. ...

  • Richard Kelly’s THE BOX is D.O.A?


    Obsessed With FilmAuthority Authority: 537
    As the trailer suggested, Richard Kellys third preposterous and pseudo-intellectual offering The Box takes the simple premise of the button pushing Richard Matheson written morality play and turns it into a multi-layered mind-fuck that is strictly not for everyone. Thats the general consensus from most of the reviews, ...

    Are You Screening?Authority Authority: 430
    When it comes to moral decisions, humans are actually quite fascinating. I say that not because of anything  The Box relates in its unbearable two-hour delivery, but because when moral conundrums are taken as the jumping off point for a story, this sort of nonsense is the result. Based loosely on a short story ...

  • Review: The Box


    Film School RejectsAuthority Authority: 667
    I can’t imagine that adapting a short story that’s already been adapted into an episode of “The Twilight Zone,” and attempting to extend it into a feature length is an easy task. Especially when the original story has that built-in single-note ethical spin that seemed perfect for Serling and company to weave ...

    I dont know what The Box means. Come to think of it, I dont know what Richard Kelly means. None of his films make sense. Donnie Darko doesnt make sense. Southland Tales doesnt make sense. Domino , which he wrote, doesnt make sense. Knowing , which he worked on for a long time, makes sense, but Alex ...

    The Box starts with a concept that appeals to most peoples love for mystery: an anonymous gift left on a suburban doorstep belonging to the Lewis family. Wrapped all in brown paper, it arrives just before the moment private school teacher Norma Lewis (Cameron Diaz) discovers her sons tuition will no longer be a ...
