2001 A Space Odyssey Description:
"Only $4.94 at Excalibur Films. We always Guarantee the Lowest Prices. 2001: A Space Odyssey is a countdown to tomorrow, a quest for the infinite. It is a dazzling, Academy Award winning visual achievement, a compelling drama of man vs. machine, a stunning meld of music and motion, a work so influential that Steven Spielberg likened it to the formative Big Bang of his filmmaking generation. It may be the masterwork of director Stanley Kubrick (who co-wrote the screenplay with Arthur C. Clark)... and it will likely excite, inspire and enthrall for generations.
To begin his voyage into the future, Kubrick visits our prehistoric ape-ancestry past, then leaps millennia (via one of the most mind-blowing lump cuts ever conceived) into colonized space, and ultimately whisks astronaut Bowman (Keir Dullea) into enchanted realms of space, perhaps even into immorality. Open the pod bay doors, HAL. Let the awe and mystery of a journey unlike any other begin.

2000 Years of Christianity 10 DVD. 2001 A Space Odyssey DVD DVD A new era came about in the minds of the people. 'Cogito ergo sum,' 'I think, therefore I am,' wrote René Descartes and gave the European spirit a new direction. The universe now appeared as mechanical clockwork. Anyone who understood its laws could dominate it. In this system, God was just an unprovable assumption, the church at best a moral institution for the ethical education of the citizenry. In Prussia and Austria enlightened monarchs took power and the French Revolution swept aside the remainders of the Middle Ages.
