Criterion Channel: Technothrillers

In October 2023, the Criterion Channel published a curated series of 14 films with this description: "Technothrillers fuse sleek, suspenseful genre pleasures with potent social commentary, posing provocative questions about the impact of technology on society in an era of corporate domination, omnipresent surveillance, and seemingly unstoppable innovation. Whether exploring the dark fringes of cyberspace, as in <i>The Net</i> and <i>Demonlover</i>, or more fantastically imagined technologies—from the killer animatronic cowboys of <i>Westworld</i> to the dream-hacking device of <i>Paprika</i>—these nightmare fantasies are science fiction at its most propulsive and entertaining, featuring stellar flesh-and-blood performances from the likes of Robert Redford, Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Tom Cruise." I watched all of them, and this is what I found. <a href="https://letterboxd.com/robin___/list/master-list/" rel="nofollow">See my master list, which links to all my others</a>
