Hardly an adaptation, this is The Fountain as you were meant to experience it. Lushly painted and fully realized, the printed version reads like the Director’s Cut of the film, perfectly blending the mythos, the science and the passion of Aronofsky’s story. Fans of the film will relish the chance to compare the two projects and revisit the film. Newcomers will marvel at the vast ocean of ideas barely contained between the covers of The Fountain. All will be richly rewarded for their investment.
