Space

There ar a few legendary movies where real people are not playing the major roles. I can't even remember the main characters. Vanishing Point (driver = Kowalski) was one of those movies with the 1971 Dodge Challenger RT - and that popped up again in Tarantino's Death Proof.

The HAL 9000 computer (voice = Douglas Rain) is the main character in this great 40yo. movie - (director = Stanley Kubrick)

Please remind me that I have to blog some more movies of Stanley Kubrick.

When the world is ruled by apes, one particular group discovers a mysterious rectangular monolith near their home, which imparts upon them the knowledge of tool use, and enables them to evolve into men. In the year 2001, a similar monolith is discovered on the moon, and is determined to have come from an area near Jupiter. Astronaut David Bowman, along with four companions, sets off for Jupiter on a spaceship controlled by HAL 9000, a revolutionary computer system that is every bit mankind's equal, and perhaps his superior. When HAL endangers the crew's lives for the sake of the mission, Bowman will have to first overcome the computer, then travel to the birthplace of the monolith, where whatever alien intelligence controls them decides that humanity is ready to take the next evolutionary step.

The movie comes in about 7x100MB. parts
