Three Thousand Years of Longing

In many ways Three Thousand Years... is everything Fury Road isn’t. Namely: incessantly talky and almost completely devoid of action.

...is guileless, open-hearted, like an antiquarian bookseller’s dream of The Thief of Baghdad. It’s so defiantly out of step with fashion that there’s finally something faintly glorious about it.

...a glossy cinematic knickknack steeped in the heady unreality of a fable, or a dream.

George Miller’s film is a passionate exploration of how image-making is inextricable from storytelling.
