Adjustment Bureau
The Adjustment Bureau, based on one of my favorite sci-fi author's short stories (Philip K. Dick, "The Adjustment Team"), deals with fate and how our choices can be adjusted.
What's your take on this film with the bureau men / guardian angels who can slip through doors that lead to other places? Is the Chairman simply God and the Bureau just an extended metaphor for angels? Why was mankind given free will just twice? And since we've had it taken away since 1962, does that mean the awful things that have happened since then are the doings of the bureau men?
Thanks. Due by Sunday, March 20.
