Cannabis, la drogue douce dont l'hypocrisie dure #DATAGUEULE 11

The Man in the High Castle (2015) In Amazon’s The Man in the High Castle, an adaptation of Philip K. Dick’s alternate history novel of the same name, it’s 1962, the Allies lost World War II, and the two major Axis powers have divvied up North America between them. The narrative revolves around film canisters containing a revolutionary re-writing of history. That notion — of a dangerous film retelling history — is woven into the fabric of the show’s title sequence, created by Elastic. The first sounds are of a film projector starting, and the sequence presents a number of images with the flickering and uneven style of projected celluloid. But the most interesting, and most poetically resonant, choice made in this sequence is the use of “Edelweiss”, sung in heavily accented English by an almost whispering female voice. The key emotion conveyed by the title sequence is one of yearning, of doomed nostalgia, and the quiet struggle to maintain one’s identity in the face of huge historical forces.
