The Illustrated Man (1969)
Country: US
Technical: col/scope 103m
Director: Jack Smight
Cast: Rod Steiger, Claire Bloom
Synopsis:
A man's body is covered from head to foot with tattoos, each of which tells its own futuristic story.
Review:
The tales themselves are average, but their integration is perfunctory and the thrust of the whole obscure, e.g. 'He who looks into the future must expect answers which are not absolute.' Steiger and science fiction make strange bedfellows, but at least it is better than Tattoo.
