4:44 Last Day on Earth

1h 21m
Directed by Abel Ferrara • 2011 • United States, France, Switzerland
Starring Willem Dafoe, Shanyn Leigh, Natasha Lyonne
Abel Ferrara’s typically subversive take on the disaster film approaches the apocalypse from a uniquely human perspective. With the world set to end from environmental collapse at precisely 4:44 AM the next morning, a couple (Willem Dafoe and Shanyn Leigh) spend their last day together in a New York City apartment, losing themselves in art, sex, and rumination. Forgoing science-fiction spectacle in favor of a hushed intimacy, Ferrara offers a provocative and strangely beautiful meditation on existence and impermanence.
