RobDet and Nathan, both you guys just shot up to the top of my "to-convert" list.
From my understanding, David's "mother" wasn't resurrected- the advanced robot beings composed a virtual simulacrum to fool David into thinking she was back from the dead. The viewer's awareness of this fact makes the ending all the more compelling and sad.
IMO easily the best film of either Spielberg's or Kubrick's esteemed careers. There's so much to dissect here, so many layers my appreciation grows furthermore after each viewing.
Just wondering why it didn't do it for you guys. This film has a polarizing effect on audiences- people either love it or loathe it. But oh well...as another NICO member eloquently put it..."something made to offend no one is the epitome of boring."
