Comment on True art is polarizing

The setup of this movie reminds me of Locke with Tom Hardy. That’s also basically a movie where you watch 1 person in a static situation (in a car in Locke) conducting remote project management. I’d have never expected a full movie to work with that setup, but Locke pulls it off imo.
I remember watching Fail Safe by chance and that movie was so fucking tense! Completely carried by the amazing cast. Maybe I should watch it again!
It’s about a cold war situation where iirc the USA bomb a city in Russia by accident and the movie / play is about how the two presidents negotiate to avoid all out nuclear war. Fantastic stuff.
Don’t forget Phone Booth! It’s Colin Farrell in a phone booth!!
Also kinda similar is Buried with Ryan Reynolds. Just him in a box the whole movie.

There was a whole movie with a guy in a box hoping to be unearthed (Buried, or something like that). It was quite decent.
