given her limitless access to human literature and history, and she’s fascinated by it. How can we redeem ourselves? How do we get out of this? How can we harness technology and retain our sense of humanity, and use it for good? I think the end of the film will leave people wanting to value what makes us human, and to encourage them to pull themselves away from technology for a moment, to put down their game and appreciate something as simple as the sun. The original film asked, what if we lost control, but T ron: Legacy says, we have lost control, and we acknowledge that we are dependent on technology, so what now?

I think the great thing about Tron: Legacy is that it revisits the question, but coming from a different place. It’s the age-old question of humanity and its values. I thought it was pretty interesting that they could ask the question, what if the personal computer, which is becoming part of our lives, could talk to us? And what if we lost control? It’s an interesting question that’s come up in other films over the years, such as The Terminator. And pretty impressive in that it was very cutting edge for its time – remember, this was 1982, and having actors say things like ‘program’ and ‘bit’ was probably gobbledegook to them.

It was interesting, because it was a lot funnier than I thought it would be. What part of the original film most impressed you?
