14) The Poem by Dylan Thomas

The poem by Dylan Thomas is recited by Michael Caine’s character before sending Cooper on a perilous mission, fully aware of the immense stakes and uncertain outcome. Its beauty lies in its exploration of human emotion, despair, and the defiance of the inevitable. It speaks of battling death, cherishing life, and never giving up without a fight. In the film, it mirrors Cooper’s journey as he reaches across time and space to find a solution to save humanity and his loved ones, determined to leave no stone unturned.
