When Michelangelo painted the 'Creation of Adam' on the Sistine Chapel ceiling, some believe he hid the shape of a human brain in the figure of God.
This may have been to symbolize God giving Adam intelligence and consciousness during creation.
Michelangelo was known for studying human anatomy and often used it as inspiration for his art.
There’s something about each viewing of Vileneuve’s Sicario that always leaves me rattled. I can’t believe it’s been almost ten years since I first saw this, but I’ll never forget seeing Sicario in theaters- it’s just one of those movies. Regardless of how many times I’ve seen it, every rewatch feels as intense & as gripping as the last. Denis tapped legendary cinematographer Roger Deakins for this one and boy do these two mesh- their partnership brings Juarez & the enormous dangers of the cartel to life. Lead by The Three B’s (Brolin, Benicio & Blunt), the acting in Sicario is world class from top to bottom (see also Bernthal, Kaluuya, Garber). For me, this could be the best performance of Blunt’s career. Sicario is a violent, disturbing journey that’s not necessarily for everyone; but each time I experience this movie, I’m reminded that Villeneuve is simply a master of his craft.
