The Glass Fortress {French: La forteresse de verre) is a 2016 French science fiction short film directed by Alain Bourret. The film presents a world of harmony and conformity within a united scientific-progressivist state.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9] The film is based on the 1921 novel We by the Russian writer Yevgeny Zamyatin, who was partly influenced by Jerome K. Jerome's 1891 essay The New Utopia,[10] as well as by the writings of H.G. Wells, a popular apostle of a scientific socialist utopia at the time.[11] The film The Glass Fortress is related to We (a classic 1982 German film), La Jetée[4] (a classic 1962 French photomontage film), 12 Monkeys (a very popular classic 1995 American film by director Terry Gilliam) and to THX 1138[4] (a 1971 American film by director George Lucas).

Comments from Editors Welcome - in any case - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 18:15, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Mentioning other films that are from the same sourced material is not needed. See every film adaptation of Romeo and Juliet or Hamlet. BOVINEBOY2008 18:20, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
@Bovineboy2008: Thank you for your interest - and comments - they're appreciated - my concern is one of context re The Glass Fortress film - background and related, including other film adaptations from the same sourced material, may be helpful with this particular film - after all - the sourced material (and related film adaptatons) for this film may be much less well known than for Romeo and Juliet and Hamlet - knowing more of the background (and related film adaptations) of this particular film may better benefit readers as a result - hope this helps in some way - in any regards - Thanks again - and - Enjoy! :) Drbogdan (talk) 19:51, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Understandable, but that is information that is better suited for the article on the novel, not this article. The fact that there are other films has nothing to do with this film, despite how well known the source material is. BOVINEBOY2008 20:19, 14 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
