There are so many levels to this film that it's interesting to discuss interpretations immediately afterward. In this way, it is very much like poetry. I can easily imagine watching this film ten years from now and having it mean something completely different to me than it does right now. That is another element that makes this film like poetry. I encourage people to watch this film with a small group because a discourse is guaranteed to follow.
I was in a hurry the day I first saw The Moment After and had the thought that I would simply "fit it" into my day. 13 minutes and 30 seconds later, I sat there in awe, mulling over the thoughts and emotions the film was bringing out in me that seemed to keep coming for a significant amount of time. I am changed.
