2026 Update: This journal entry was published long before Shane Carruth’s name made headlines for controversial reasons. Reading it now, I note the Christianity Today interview link with some chagrin. 😬

If you haven’t seen Primer, you should.

It’s the first challenger this year to take on Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind for the title of Most Enthralling Science Fiction Feature.

It’s even more intriguing because it was made for $7,000. You read that right.

And get this: the lead actor is also the writer and director of the film.

Primer was one of the main attractions at Sundance this year.

And this fellow who made it is a Christian.
