TCP#44: Never Let Me Go

Hello Couchers! Welcome to the June 21st edition of Tuesday Couch Potatoes where we post about a movie each week. This week's theme is: Genetically Engineered. If you have seen or is planning to see a film that involves cloning and genetic engineering, then come share it with us this week.


My pick for this week's theme is a movie based on the novel by Kazuo Ishiguro: Never Let Me Go. It is an upcoming 2010 film, something that many of us will look forward to. Why? Because it stars Keira Knightly and Carrey Mulligan among others. As Wikipedia puts it, it is
A story of a woman who, as she reflects on her private school years in the English countryside, reunites with her two friends to face the dark secrets buried in their communal past. With no contact or knowledge of the outside world during their years at the boarding school, they discover they are clones, born and raised for the sole purpose of providing organs for transplants.
For me, it has quite an interesting plot. And I am now in a frantic search for a copy of the book so that I will know what the story really is about. Here's the official theatrical trailer that I found on YouTube.





Interesting eh? Want more Cloning & Genetically Themed Movies? Then check out other entries in the linky below:

Thank you for joining us this week Couchers! I hope to see you all again next week for some Matt Damon Movies. Till next week my dears. Take care and Happy TCP!
