One of the most ambitious movies ever filmed tells six stories, connected across different times and places. Based on the book by David Mitchell, Cloud Atlas suggests themes of reincarnation, karma, and consequences for our actions. Many of the actors appear in more than one story; some are in all six, but they may not be easy to recognize. Some actors play both male and female parts. The stories begin in the 1840s and extend to a distant planet in the year 2250. How can such a fascinating movie be explained? Just watch! With Tom Hanks, Halle Berry, Jim Broadbent, Hugo Weaving, Jim Sturgess, Doona Bae, Susan Sarandon, Hugh Grant. Rated R (172 min.) mike laib 2013
