Reading Response: Carl Abbott

Reading introduces the cities in the movie, many of which have a clear hierarchical setting. I think a large part of how these cities work is based on hierarchy. In Snowpiercer, for example, class differences in trains are also an important part.
I think in a lot of cases the imaginary cities in the film create this kind of hierarchal disparity that adds to the contradictions of the film. And more importantly, many times these contradictions change things.
Although the class conflict in the film is more serious, it also reflects the situation faced by real human beings, so it is worth pondering.

    Appreciate your reflection. Perhaps you may elaborate on why people have to use sci-fi as a medium to discuss real-life problems.
