The audacity to stitch together a narrative as bleak as 'Echoes of Tomorrow' is, in itself, a grim testament to the modern filmmaker's infatuation with dystopia. The film's pretentious tagline could not have been more apt, encapsulating the dire symphony of despair one is subjected to throughout its duration. Betty Bly-thee's attempts to etch beauty into ruin feel as futile as Colin Fillet-of-Fish's metaphorical battle against digital oblivion. Their quixotic struggle, while potentially moving, is lost in a script that seems to revel in the misery of its own making, muddling any profound insight with overwrought pessimism. Benicio Del Tofurkey, albeit an earnest attempt at offering levity, swings the pendulum between somber soliloquies and trite melodrama. Alfred Hitchcockatoo, whose direction is generally revered, appears to misplace his Midas touch in this cinematic endeavor. His legendary status hardly compensates for the overarching sense of despondence that anchors the viewer in a quagmire of desolation, from which even the film's 'classical era' aesthetic cannot extricate us. A relentless dirge, 'Echoes of Tomorrow' is a film that is perhaps too enamored with its melancholic vision, leaving audiences more numb than enlightened. It is not the echoes of tomorrow we hoped would resonate, but the disquieting silence of creativity grappling with the inevitability of oblivion.
