Faces laughing, awash in a bloodred glow
Whispered truths lost beneath the conversation
Glimpses away into secret places
where voices are swallowed by silent winds
and nothing but memory can escape
All around us the twilit ones are walking
their hands extended, eyes full of desire
longing for us to follow them into moonlit worlds
where out among winds that cannot touch us
our voices will speak of secret things forever

The Martian Chronicles needs a movie made out of it. Actually, it should be a miniseries. It would be incredible to see the world Ray Bradbury created come alive.

They did! I don’t remember the miniseries so I can’t vouch for the quality but it’s been done.

There needs to be a movie of the Martian Chronicles. It’s so relevant, and it deserves an adaptation that will do it justice. The 1980 miniseries didn’t.
