GATTACA
· Questions of genre
· Which genre? ‘Not too distant future,’ suggests that we are already there
· On one level a ‘Who-dunnit’/murder mystery
· Contains traditional elements of film noir – dark, pessimistic, retro-style detectives
· Romance – strangely unengaging
· Different types of love stories explored – Vincent & (the real) Jerome: A real bond of brotherly love which forms a contrast with Vincent & Anton’s relationship
· The image of the double helix – Threads that make-up the spiraling DNA model reflect the blending of genres
Gattaca is a film that questions in a very critical manner the entire concept of genetic engineering.
