After 30,000 years, John perfected his skills with genetics, created an army, and took back the galaxy for mankind after 5000 years of strife. Unfortunately, all the old Standard Template Construct machines that kept all of man's knowledge was lost. John was only known as the Emperor of Mankind by then.
Like the theory but the big E is a perpetual not immortal. When he is killed he reincarnates, John just seems to be immortal. Would be cool if GW explored that and finally let the Emperor die and then come back and start the grand crusade over again.
Until one of his son's betrayed him and wounded him and putting John on a golden throne in agonizing pain for 10,000 years. In the 41st millennium there is only war and the laughter of thirsting god's.
We pledged our allegiance to The Emperor of Men.
All Hail the Golden Throne!!
Blood for the blood god! Skulls for the skull throne! FOR KORHNE!!!!!!!
Awesome comment
It was an amazing movie. Any movie that can pretty much be just a bunch of people sitting around in a single room talking and still keep you riveted the entire time is filmmaking at its finest.
It was dumb because no educated people are going to be that hooked in his story, if they were poorly educated yes
@@NT-lq3lq not true some of the most brilliant people to have ever lived were religious and thats all just stories
@@coryb6722 probably but how this guy tells his story is utterly unbelievable, if you ask me the mind process of a guy living that long is close to what Jorge Luis Borges depicted in his short story The Innmoral
Storytelling. This transcends film. You could listen to it on a radio, read it in a book, hell I bet there's already a TV show with a similar plot.
12 angry men. Check that out
Every once in a while, I would sit down with my tea and enjoy The Man from Earth. One of the best movies I've ever seen. Glad I'm not the only one who feels that way.
I liked it mostly because of the story and the thought-provoking ideas that come from the premise. I wouldn't call it great though as it could of been so much more.
yep, u are braindead
Same goes for me.
I'm a big fan of the Highlander franchise. This movie has nothing to do with it but taking the apparent immortality issue in such way (pure chance) was inspiring. Loved every minute of it. You end up asking yourself if there isn't a John among us.
There can be only one and john is the one
The first movie was great but the later ones weren't. The series wasn't that bad either.
If John’s not immortal, the chances of him surviving for 14,000 years without being killed (rather than dying from old age) would be extraordinarily slim…
not really
if you somehow calculate the unnatural death rate throughout every period and add how john doesn't age, slow down and has thousands of years of experience, then its believable
Ikr.. He never caught a terrible disease. Or was made to fight in any of the wars through out humanity or Enslaved.. Or developed Cancer, incurable Syphilis, Altheimers or Cancer or HIV, any other epidemics or pandemics
@Leslie Leuvenink yea how did he survive that if he's not immortal
@Leslie Leuvenink That actually fits. Him having gaps in memories or losing knowledge may be an side effect of dying and resurrecting. Chances are he got drafted in WWI or WW2 and died and then woke up, none the wiser years later.
@Leslie Leuvenink ikr, imagine all the archeological artifacts he would have
He didn't meet Jesus he was Jesus, or at least the man that inspired the myth. For a simple movie with next to no budget this was a surprisingly good movie.
Yeah if this was not a work of fiction it would be wild to think that this one man, for better or worse, altered history so much for thousands of years. Like the amount of wars one man caused by being a figurehead for a religion despite just being basically immortal and not the son of a deity.
He let 2000 years people dying out of his scam wow
You should watch the whole movie if you haven't. Regardless of spoilers the story telling is fantastically done here.
Agreed
Warhammer 40k emperor lol
Terrific movie! In the ending scene, John treated 'Chilly Willy' more like a distant relative rather than a son....seemed a little cold not to see John cry after Will died, but I guess John didn't spend enough time with Will to have a huge emotional bond with Will. Will's death benefitted John though because it clearly warned Sandy, his assistant/girlfriend that if she was going to tag along with John, then she should do so with eyes wide open to the eventuality of him leaving her.
That is a side effect of living and seeing too much. There is a series that explore this with the idea of transferring consciousness as a way to travel through the stars. Altered carbon
It's likely that John has thousands/millions of descendens. I recon you really lose the emotional binding after the first couple hundred.
One human can only grieve so much.
I think if he was willing to tell her his secret, he probably would have been willing to let her move around with him a time or two
"seemed a little cold " I mean I think you would probably have to be. Constantly seeing everyone you love die for thousands of years you would probably develop a numbness to it.
@username Man From Earth

@JC No, in most places a life sentence is your whole life. You may be allowed to ask for parole after 15-25 years, though.
In Warhammer 40k there's a character called Ollanius Persson who is also immortal, he's perhaps the oldest human to exist and the last Catholic.
This feels like this character
This was an impressive movie. It mostly takes place in a single room with the premise of a man who has lived throughout human history and goes over it without any glorification of it. The first time I saw it I didn't know what to make of it. By the second time I enjoyed this extremely simple, low budget film. It is still unique to this day.
@username The Man from Earth
Great hidden gem of a movie. It literally took place in a single room almost the whole movie. All acting. No stunts or CGI. Just great story. I have rewatched this movie a few times and its still satisfying to watch. This was a great contribution to film.
Where did you watch it??
@@riyanhussain3072 I believe I watched it on Netflix. But I'm not certain.
This is a Complete plot steal from the well known writer Robert Heinlein,.. The Lives of Lazarus Long. But Heinlein s book is much better.
Jesus loves all of you repent of your sins which is bad things belive that God raised Jesus from the dead and confess Jesus as lord and you will be saved:
@@raywhitehead730 agree that Heinlein was great sci-fi author, a read all his books through my youth, but Bixby developed this story over most of his life, fine tuned it for more than 30 yrs I believe. Based originally on a short story he wrote which was a Star Trek episode (Shatner era). So I'm not sure if that pre-dates Heinlein's Lazarus? But anyway, quite conceivable that great writers with such imaginations can develop similar concepts independently...
Low budget doesn't matter. Acting, story, direction matter!! Absolute . This narration itself made me love it. Acting is when you don't feel it's good or bad acting, just get lost in the story
Low budget makes it more of a gem, as it shows that their creativity shown through the fact they couldn't slap in CGI or Will Smith and Dwayen "The Rock" Johnson for views. Just a room, a cast, and a great story.
No CGI to show his thoughts into image, no recognizable faces to look at while you ignore the story, just a bare bones campfire tale like experience.
This film is criminaly underrated.
And for budget film with just 1 set only after the film ended did I ubderstand that I just watched a film about people talking in a house and slightly outside the property with 85%+ being in the living room.
This was a great film and it should have won some awards.
Most of the actors are unknown to me but they did a great performance.
I think a book and remake with flashback scenes would be amazing.
The best movie I've ever seen, no visual effects, no dramatic acting but a true amazing storytelling. There is a sequel but I've never seen it
Nice try John. We know it's you. You can't keep getting away with changing surnames everytime :)
I can only imagine the loneliness he feels
But think About it he don't get old so he can just keep dating young girls and will never be lonely
Phedo
It's fiction
he said he can die he is not immortal
@@godsongoated9523 its only fun at first soon you'll realize lol
I saw this movie probably a decade ago. It was kind of low budget, but it had a great cast of semi-famous actors, many I knew from the last 40 plus years. The ending was really touching, definitely try to watch it if you can.

Like others said, no special effects or elaborate sets. Just a really good story, and it uses the viewer to put the pictures into their own heads to interpret what actually happened. Brilliant!
I always loved this movie since I saw, the fact it’s set in 1 location and the entire premise is left in the viewers mind to believe is amazing. Sucks the sequel kinda ruined it tho.
@normalyoutubechannelcarryo8567 bad
Watch the sequel again. I think you'll like it better. I've seen it couple of times and I liked it more. I too was disappointed the first time. I don't know what I was expecting, but after another viewing, I realized it is a logical sequence to the first one.
@@user-ep5do5yx8t I think the sequel ruins the vague nature of the original, it confirms the sci to nature of the story, the fact that you’re never shown anything lets you wonder if it was even real.
This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. My whole idea of what a movie can be changed the day I watched this. It's just story telling that leaves the user to use their own noggin to conjure up images or "videos" while not spoon feeding you with flashy scenes with CGI. It's 100% dialog and I love it. Which is why I really like MrBallen's videos. He's a good story teller.
Yes! It's like hearing stories as a kid, you don't need spoon fed scenes to imagine a story in your head. The best books I've read played like a long format movie in my head.
It's basically just a history lesson with some of the creator's personal views mixed in.
What's the name of this movie? I've looked online but can't find it.
Thanks.
@@rolandbujeiro42 The Man from Earth 2007 :)
@@newguy3588 Thank you!!👍
Correction. He didn't meet Jesus. He was Jesus. He took the teachings of Buddha to the Roman empire and got crucified and was Jesus.
And how did he know everything about will?
@@user-fu2xq3kw3m he is also will's father
The only problem is Jesus didnt come from Buddah's region. He was born a Jew in Nazareth and had a mother called Mary. Jesus was literally known already by locals when He started His missionaries. Jesus was known so well that the bible mentions how people were astonished that He knew so much about God when he never grew up as a rabbi. Jesus also made miracles and even now you can never disagree with the points he made in his sermons.
@Shaikh Saeed the whole point about Jesus is that hes meant to be Gods own sacrifice. So yes. Who else can redeem you from evil, except God?
@@user-ot4rc9jh8e
The parents of Jesus were Essenes, mystics connected to Magi (Zoroastrians), Hindus and buddhists. Their teachings were thus similar to eastern teachings and different from those of the Pharisees and sadducees. Legend has it that this was why Magi from the east attended his birth, bearing gifts, and that Jesus travelled to the east to learn their traditions, returning at age 30 years, which is why the bible was silent about him until then.
I’ve seen this movie plus the sequel but what was said he preached the teachings of Buddha on a hill one day and everyone loved what he had said but they mistakenly named him Jesua. Ultimately the name grew or translated to Jesus but with everything in life the story of a man becomes bigger than the man no matter how much you downplay it. Love this movie and I will never stop rewatching it.
What's the name of the sequel?

This movie is saved at my house. I pull it out ever so often. Wonderful story. Great actors.I am a Christian so I understand the concerns BUT waych this movie. You will not be disappointed.
I really loved this movie.
It was super low budget and basically all took place in one room, and I figured very few people knew about it.
But I think it was always one of my favorites.
Had a kind of similar feel to 12 Angry Men.
I'm not sure if I already ceased being Christian by the time I watched it or if this movie was one of the many things that made me start questioning my beliefs.
welp... guess you’re going to hell all because of a movie
@@ChromeM 😂
A movie based on fiction changing history to fit the narrative of one character made you question your beliefs? Sounds to me that you didn't have any strong feelings or understandings of your belief.
@@jayarcher3331 This. If your belief isn't strong enough it will be taken down easily

FYI, the movie is called " The Man from Earth", a great script, well acted and a very thought provoking movie!
didnt have to point it out because it was already at the start but ok thanks
Bruh he said the it at the start of the video but thanks
This is for the people that forget what the movie is called at the beginning and are too lazy to go back to the beginning or look it up and they thank you
Thank you!
I missed the beginning of the video and couldn't see a title anywhere.
How hard is it to put the movie title in the description?!
To me, this is one of the greatest movies ever made. The narration is so deep, you just get so involved. Funny thing is, almost the entire movie takes place in the same house..
A gem true to the word. The narrative for this film is a rare piece of storytelling that manages to draw a very humane picture as an answer to the question "What would immortality be like?" I remember when I first saw this film around when it was released: it captivated me with its simplicity and emotional sting. This movie is one of the few I always refer to anyone that wants to see a movie about immortality; it stands with movies such as He Never Died.
A weird point but as he's 14,000 years old wouldn't that mean a high percentage of humanity is a direct descendant from him? 👀
Actually no you’re wrong.
@@vish6659 explanation?
@@izebdeh he never had a child. his only "child" was his student at harvard that he abandoned
@@bernardok Do we find that out from the film itself? From this explaination video it sounds like the heart attack guy was "The only adult child he ever saw die", meaning that he had dipped out of the lives of any other kids long before they became adults.
@Zaid Rahman Pretty much. It was proven by geneticists that anyone alive in the 9th century Europe who left descendants is a common ancestor of all Europeans. Go back 14 millenia instead of just one and that's just more time to spread the genes.
I loved this fiim, just a handful of people talking in a single room for pretty much the whole film and still held my attention throughout.
This short video clip truly surprised me. I now will watch the movie in it's entirety. A movie without fancy CGI and a big budget. Just good acting and a very unique storyline. Though John surviving for 14,000 years without being mortality wounded? John is extremely lucky to have made it unscathed. 💪🏼🙏🏻✨
Watch the movie and you'll understand how John made so long. warning: Once you've watch it, you will find yourself watching it several times for the next 14,000 years (or less if you don't make it that long.)
You are honestly one of the best movie recap channels out there, great job
There's a dc comic book character named "Vandal Savage" whose story is sort of the similar except he is a villain, I think they are even around the same age 14000 years old
Savage is at least 40k years old.
Its important to note that Vandal Savage isn't really human all things considered even putting aside his immortality and heightened intelligence he would be one of the "proto-humans" like a Neanderthal or something else which would explain his appearance, strength and durability. It should also be noted that he hasn't always been a villian in his life it just so happens that in the modern world his views and ideology of Survival of the fittest isn't a heroic one.
Also I believe that Vandal Savage is based on a character that appears briefly in one of the pulp fiction stories of what i think was "The Shadow" and I can't remember much more then that but thats were the concept of that character comes from.
Vandal is, iirc, 75,000 years old.
Don't compare Vandal to this weakling. Besides, Vandal is secretly Earth's protector. Obviously, he wants to rule it, because knows what cosmic dangers awaits the planet. Even if he accepts and embraces natural selection, which is quite reasonable point of view from Savage's standpoint. At least according with "Young Justice" adaptation of the character.
And after all, if you live so long, you experience loss so many times, you either get crazy or detached. Vandal became the latter, but also didn't want seat down doing nothing.
One is a phsycho who is immortal the other is living forever but mortal.
The only guy who will live long enough to see Gta 6

This movie was a mind-blower. I've probably watched it a couple of dozen times since first viewing. The second movie, "The Man from Earth: Holocene" is interesting, as well.
While the warning at the beginning is understandable, I just want to say that I am quite religious yet wasn't offended by this at all. If we can't look at a different take on our beliefs (especially a fictional one) then what we have isn't faith but rather desperate clinging.
This looks like a really cool movie.

I just wanted to say that this is my most "watched" movie ever. My brother recommended me this one, oh... I don't remember, feels like 15 years ago. Used to, and still do at times, listen to this while trying to fall asleep. I have always have problems with that and need something to listen to, and this one is perfect. You don't even need to see the movie, just listening to it as a audio book works awesomely after having seen it once or twice, so you have a brain movie playing while listening. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
This was an absolute masterpiece and perfect portrayal of person's skills
This is the best thought provoking movie and beautifully crafted, simple conversations between people is just presented in so captivating way while the story slowly creeps in. 10/10
I saw this back in 2007 and it's one of the greatest movies I've ever seen. The dialog and all of it being in just 1 setting was surprisingly refreshing.
Mee too I have seen it before and thought that this was boring until I fully understand what is it all about hahahaha
Come on man, at Columbus' time everyone thought that the earth is flat? Come on.
Some combination of the simplicity of the setting and the plot....can't help but find this movie utterly fascinating.
If they ever decide to make the poor decision to make a sequel (in addition to the one that already exists) it might be interesting to see 14,000 years from the perspective of the other fellow that John met in the 1600s.
as someone who is religious i really enjoyed this movie. we should all have our minds open to truth. yes we believe in things but also we (everyone) should be open to the possibility that they are wrong. Socrates - "I know that I know nothing" and was that the one who thought something like the only thing i know to be certain is that i exist? hmmm in any case i think this looks like a great movie.
That's good and well put. It's refreshing to hear that from a religious person. Most that I have met will never change their minds.
same i am religious and i think this is a cool movie idea
Would you be open to changing your mind about being open changing your mind. See well minor things or that's hell with that conviction can be swayed into a change. Things that require full commitments and conviction can't be. Unless there's a change of person there won't be a change of mind. Now someone may change the religion however that's not change of mind but a change of belief. The mind while neuroplastic, in consideration to a person is often rigid in its purpose. The pursuits of fulfilling relationships, the achievements of great success, the Ecstasy of indulging in pleasures and the accumulation and exertion of control and power. These things can be seen in reflections of almost all people, in those few I haven't seen take actions based upon these things have most certainly done it, are going to do it, or my analysis was not deep enough into their actions. I find that people who are open to change their minds often mean beliefs they have that they consider with little importance.
I had a conversation with my teacher of why god would create hell if he was "Perfect sinless and completely great" did not get a single good answer
@@doggydude2668 God created Hell for the devil and his angels and followers. Basically anyone that rejects Jesus and embraces evil. Is that a bad thing or a justified reason? If we have free will, dont we have a say right now to choose doing good or evil. If we choose Good, why would we go against God, who is also keeping evil accountable. If we choose Evil, why do we expect God to redeem our free will? Isnt the whole point about Jesus to be redeemed through his death, and not by our own attempts? God created Heaven and Hell for that reason. The bible even says God does not want ANYBODY to go to hell. But still people will still go by their own free will. Taking our Free will is not love. Its forcing a love on people. God gives people time to love him.God wont force anyone to pray.
Man, watching this was like watching a really good story from your teacher. It was literally shot in a single room and yet it still managed to become one of my most favorite movies. It's just so deep, I don't know what to believe anymore. It makes me think of my own existence. This movie is pretty life changing.
The Star Trek original series episode _Requiem for Methuselah_ was also written by Jerome Bixby. Its main character of Flint may have been John, or the other long-lived person he met.
At least three of the actors in this film were also on one or more Star Trek shows.
Tony Todd's character explicitly says he's going home to watch Star Trek to return to rationality, when he's departing after John 'reveals' that he wasn't being serious, it was just a thought experiment... (Tony Todd performed in ST:TNG, Voyager, and DS9 as Kurn, Alpha Hirogen, and Jake Sisko, respectively)
No doubt about it, Flint and John are the same person! Too many similarities! And remember, Flint made it clear he was quite alone in the Universe. Also as he kind of found out in a Highlander way by being shot through the heart, we know even normally fatal wounds aren't any big deal, so if there was another, they'd still be around.
wow this is such a good movie! I would've never heard of this without this channel, thanks for the recap!
This was a great movie, no special effects, all in one room, and just great dialogue. Very moving, the very end is a shocker.

Within 14k years, logically, the thought of suicide would have crossed his mind. Either to prove himself right, or to just end it. Don't get me wrong, I love this movie. Just tossing out some ideas to have a conversation.

I don’t think I’d ever kill myself given this gift, my mind is so curious to see where the future of mankind ends up.

If people need a warning because they might get "triggered" then they should do the world a favor and end it for themselves since they're not made to last with normal people.

Check out 12 Angry Men (1957) for another compelling one room movie.
one of the saddest movies ever. I went to 50 some schools growing up, so i relate to him through that.
Saw this when it was recommended by a friend. Normally don't go for a one room all dialogue movie, but the casting and dialogue kept me invested.
This has always been a weird dream of mine. See how the world changes overtime.
I remember watching this movie. It had me thinking about this for awhile. Really good movie.
One of my favourite parts was when he described how he once met someone whom he thought was another immortal like him but never saw or heard from him again.
This is one of the best sci fi movies I've ever seen.
the funny thing that movies always get wrong is that even in columbus era, most intelligent people knew that the world was round, it had been common knowledge since ancient greece.
But sadly I know several flat earthers right now who would argue with you about it till they are blue in the face. It’s a crazy world we live in.
not only common knowledge, but they even had its size deduced to a reasonable degree of accuracy. *That* is why people laughed him. They knew he was an idiot. He just happened to get bankrolled by someone who was fine with not finding what he promised as long as he found something useful.
@@InfernosReaper yep you are very right my friend
You sure are correct, and some Summerian records might show that they even knew about the earth being round and its size
The real question is why is he basically immortal? And are there actually others like him?
No...its not. They ask the real questions in the movie
Maybe he is some fucking mutant who regenerates cells fast
In the books its based on yes- there is an evil john which he mentioned in this movie "meeting" , the evil john was spoiler...........

A similar movie, with much much more gore, was made a few years back called He Never Died. There, the mythology was that the guy actually started as Cain, and was able to heal wounds in record time..
The Man from Earth: Holocene is an American science fiction drama film directed by Richard Schenkman and written by Richard Schenkman and Emerson Bixby, based on characters created by Bixby's father, science fiction writer Jerome Bixby.

She is one of the only characters to get a last name besides John Oldman and Will Gruber, Linda Murphy, and you could interperate her more jokey questions and sarcasm as someone who makes light of John's story because she too is immortal and either knows to keep things light or doesn't believe his story for that reason.
John "Old man" started laughing right off :)
They need to remake this movie with a bigger budget, and show John's past lives! That would be awesome!
He can just sit in his room and play video games forever lol
yea and his eyes will never deteriorate
imagine how good he'll be ppl will think hes hacking
Ya that would be funny
@@Tyeler80 you will get bore
You would go insane
@@curgest6807 He's 100% gone insane several times before.... Probably also one of the reasons why he moves so much. Things probably look the same... He also probably only sees something that is truly new every 100 years.
My friend showed me this years ago and I always thought it was done pretty well. It’s a very simple movie pretty much just filmed in one room and manages to hold your attention the whole time. Hard to do even with high budget movies sometimes.
Saw the film and enjoyed it, thanks for the memories.
Christian here, i loved this 🙌
this guy probably got prestige master on every call of duty
He probably heavily influenced COD to have prestige
Rule 34: Illya Von Einsbern.
This modest movie was one of the best surprises I experienced in cinema. I truly recommend to watch it!
Absolute gem of a movie. Profound and thought provoking.
As a Buddhist I’ve enjoyed this.
Do you know Buddha Himself said he isn't the 1st one and neither he isn't the last one. The word " Buddha " translates to "Enlightened Being" and the Buddha's name was Siddhartha Gowthama. I admire his teachings. I do " Vippasana meditation" which he has done to gain enlightenment 🙌 .... I am A beginner and it helps me calm down my thoughts.
@@sumesh7310 it depends on the sutra you follow, in his last one he says to disregard all previous sutra (the lotus sutra)
I am nitchren Buddhist, (imo the most realistic Buddhism to be able to practice as a normal person who still lives their lives realitivity normally) and in the lotus sutra the buddha said to disregard all previous sutras for nam yo ho reng ge ko and the lotus sutra is the way to enlightenment while not having to go live in a mountain or give up all contact or one particular food, or one of the crazy things you have to do according to the other sutras
Watched this when I was young and this brought back nostalgia.
Movie making and story telling at its finest. No fancy sets, special effects etc. Keeps you engaged...
In 08 one of my roomates in college recommended this movie to me, and its been tied for my all time favorite since. Only tied with Pump up the Volume starring Christian Slater
Bring it on the movies which we've never heard of. Cheers mate🍻. You earned yourself a new subscriber 👉🏽
Watch this movie in full.. this movie is engaging and damn interesting. And very smart too! Pls do yourself a favour and watch it .
Where can you watch it?
I can't believe Garfield makes this guy cook him lasagna
The unloaded revolver was a very nice touch. That sold the whole movie for me.
Correction: during Columbus' time everyone knew the earth was round, it was calculated many, many, many centuries ago. Flat earthers have always been insane. That being said though, Columbus was a bit of an egotistical oath and made his own, erroneous, calculations. This led to him believing and claiming that the word was shaped like a pear lol.
So columbus was sorta the flat earther of his era.
It's the only gripe I have with this movie. The rest of it was really good.
He was a great explorer and leader. Great sailor and navigator
@@MattiasTheMerc actually he was a mass murderer and rapist
Yeah, I remember reading something a few years back about quite a few things in history that are actually untrue. They were all similar in that they were widely accepted and you would never even think to question the validity of these things. I can’t right off hand remember any of the other things on the list . Only the Columbus thing. But they were all weird things in history that over a very long time were accepted by everyone. I guess they made a better story. I never heard of this movie till I came across this video, but I gotta check it out now.
It is said long back in Vedas that earth is round, Infact earth is called as BhuGol. which means round earth.
I remember seeing this movie. It was really good. It is cool to realize that the entire movie takes place in the cabin. The story is very compelling and entertaining.
this is my favorite movie because i was fixed looking to the screen, listening the movie without having any budget, this is cinema to me, that is what this movie teached me, you dont need budget, only a good director and a good script.
As a Christian i am not offended by this. Knowing that no one has lived that long makes it easy to enjoy the movie.
I remember watching this movie when I was young. Every now and then I think about it. A good movie, thought provoking.
This was a great movie, i found out about it when a Twitch artist i watch talked about it after he was hired to to teach primitive skills for the sequel, and you can even see his hand during the fire making scene.
Everyone has known the Earth is round for thousands of years. Columbus knew it was round.
So good to see William Katt. The Perry Mason movies missed him after he left.
A 14,000 year man named John "Oldman". Subtle. 😏
This is my most favorite movie of all time. The best part was how low budget it was (~10k $, shot largely in the same place). Seriously good!
This is such a great movie and it goes to show you don't need a huge budget for amazing story telling just great writting and characters
If John’s story was true, he should have be able to speak and write old languages, like Aramean , old greek,etc . He also should be able to speak and write old English. It would have been not that difficult for this academic people to test if he was telling the true.
No he covered this.
He couldn't be everywhere and your modern perspective is less than 200 years old.
He isn't hyper smart. He's immortal.
i love these kinds of "one room" stories from the time i first watched 12 angry men.
