The Thirteenth Floor (Trailer)

The Thirteenth Floor is a 1999 science fiction/crime thriller film directed by Josef Rusnak and loosely based upon Simulacron-3 (1964), a novel by Daniel F. Galouye. The film stars Craig Bierko, Gretchen Mol, Armin Mueller-Stahl, Vincent D’Onofrio, and Dennis Haysbert. In 2000, The Thirteenth Floor was nominated for the Saturn Award for Best Science Fiction Film, losing to The Matrix. Gripping in a way considerably deeper than “They Live“ and “Dark City“, this movie draws a more profound image of the ideas of Gnosticism, wittingly or not. It does so in several ways. In one way it refers to this very reality on at least two levels simultaneously, if not at least three. Can you determine what those three level are? Take all of them to be simultaneously mundane and transmundane. Even without actual Gnostic interpretation active, it is profoundly Gnostic in FORM and CONTENT. The reasons for this are as profound and detailed as one could imagine. Therefore, hold nothing back
