CLOUD ATLAS!

I recently watched a film called "Cloud Atlas", which shows the impact individual lives have on one another in the past, present and future as one sole is shaped from a killer into a hero and how an act of kindness can ripple through centuries to inspire a revolution. The stories are set in the Pacific Islands 1849, Scotland 1936, San Francisco 1973, London 2012, Neo Seoul 2144 and after the fall 2321, but all the same actors are disguised with make-up to portray different characters in each story.


 Hugo Weaving- gender change, race change, wigs, complexion change- map key = yellow

 Jim Broadbent- facial hair pieces, wigs, bald cap-map key = light yellow

 Halle Berry- 2 race changes, gender change, facial hair piece, wigs, facial art -map key = blue

 Jim Sturgess-race change, facial hair piece,wigs, facial art-map key = dark blue

 Tom Hanks- wigs, facial hair piece, bald cap, facial art-map key = red

 Hugh Grant- facial art, race change, facial hair piece, wig, age make-up -map key = orange 

 Susan Sarandon- gender change, facial art

 Doona Bae- 2 race changes, wig, facial art-map key = white/blue
