Tale of Two Time Machines
I thought this comparison was instructive, and perhaps alarming.
Even more alarming is the fact that this video was demonetized by YouTube within an hour of its publication. So even film criticism, if not unimpeachably politically correct, is censored by Big Tech.
My one remark is that the reviewer here, discussing only the films and not the book, likens the Eloi in the 1960 George Pal film to the Baby Boomers. While that may have been Pal’s intent, the book has the same incident of the Time Traveler seeing the Eloi stir no finger to save a drowning girl, depicts the same ovine sloth, but has it as the evolutionary by product of the ease and leisure of the possessing classes, as magnified over millennia.
The 1960 film is far more cheery than the book, in that the Eloi can be stirred to rebellion against the Morlocks, which implies that evolution has less command over a man’s spirit that his own will and inspiration. The book has the opposite message.
