Histoire
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesOriginally, writer/director Duncan Jones wanted to cast Sam Rockwell in what eventually became Mute (2018). However, Jones and Rockwell could never come to an agreement on which part he should play, and scheduling conflicts made an immediate collaboration on that film difficult. Because they got on so well and Jones wanted to work with Rockwell so much, he asked him what would interest him; when Rockwell named the blue collar characters from Loin de la terre (1981), Et la terre survivra (1972) and Alien: Le huitième passager (1979) as the sort of role that he wanted to try, Jones wrote this film for him. Rockwell would later make an uncredited cameo in Mute as his Sam Bell character from Moon.
- GaffesSam realizes that he has lost a tooth when feeling around in his lower jaw. However, the tooth that he pulls out of the toilet has three roots, meaning that it is a maxillary (upper) molar. Mandibular (lower) molars only have two roots, unless the person is of Asian or Native American descent.
He first felt his upper row of molars where the tooth came out of, then tried wiggling some from the bottom row to see if any more were loose.
- Générique farfeluThe fictional company which owns and operates the lunar base is called Lunar Industries Ltd. As a nod to this, the production company used to make the movie is also called Lunar Industries Ltd (UK Companies House company number 06346944), whose company directors are Duncan Zowie Hayward Jones (the movie's director) and Stuart Douglas Fenegan (one of the movie's producers).

Commentaire en vedette
While book racks are brimming with thought provoking, high concept science fiction, the movie genre tends to be populated by invading aliens, intergalactic wars, and adventure, which makes Director and co-writer Duncan Jones' Moon that much more of an oddity.
Not since Steven Soderbergh's much overlooked 2002 rendition of Stanislaw Lem's Solaris has a movie firmly rooted in the sci-fi realm delivered reflections on the human condition, which Moon does deftly.
It tells the story of Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell), the only inhabitant of an automated lunar mining base extracting Helium-3 from lunar rocks to be shipped back to Earth to fuel the energy starved planet.
Sam's isolated three year posting is about to come to an end and he longs to return to Earth to see his wife. His only company throughout this sojourn has been that of Gerty, the base's HAL-like robot voiced by Kevin Spacey. Unfortunately, the final weeks and days are proving to be the most difficult, and Sam finds himself going a bit squirrelly, leaving both he and the audience to wonder if what's unfolding is actually happening, or merely a drama taking place in his addled mind.
That's about as much plot detail as I'm going to deliver, for to delve any deeper into the story would give too much away. Be prepared, however, for a thought provoking narrative that touches on issues such as scientific ethics, corporate greed, human identity, and compassion.
There are no aliens, lasers/phasers, wormholes, warp engines or jump drives here, just a lonely space age concierge, an unflappable monotone robot, and a whole lot of fodder for your brain to chow down on.
This is what science fiction was meant to be.
