White Noise, Netflix’s final movie of 2022, is coming later this week
Don DeLillo’s novel White Noise is not the kind of story that you'd think easily lends itself to a feature film adaptation. As Netflix's logline for director Noah Baumbach's adaptation of the novel explains, this is a story about a contemporary American family set against the backdrop of the mundanity of everyday life. The family grapples with love, death, and the possibility of happiness in an uncertain world.
The time was 1985, and while America's Cold War malaise had begun to thaw, in its place could be found a mixture of existential dread and a suburban ennui that ignores one of the strangest truths about life -- as Baumbach explains it, "White Noise confronts the idea of death. That the only way to really live your life is to know that it's going to end." Like I said, not the easiest material to translate into a compelling motion picture.
