If you loved Iron Lung, try Twelve Monkeys

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Theysit in Mystery / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Iron Lung, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Twelve Monkeys is

Philadelphia, winter, a broken clock ticks. A time traveler sits in a mental hospital, a psychiatrist listens, a deadly virus looms. Gilliam frames the apocalypse as a puzzle of time and memory.
