Audiences and critics alike tend to give acclaim to movies with well-crafted twists and unexpected moments. Colliderrecently spotlighted a few beloved and surprising films by releasing a list of the "10 most unpredictable movies of all time."
Acclaimed movies like Psycho from 1960, 2018's Sorry to Bother You, 1994's Pulp Fiction, After Hours, released in 1985, and Everything Everywhere All at Once from 2022 were featured on the list. According to Collider, the "most unpredictable movie" ever released is the 2006 animated filmPaprika, adapted from Yasutaka Tsutsui's 1993 book.
Collider reported that the Satoshi Kon-directed sci-fi film, involving dream-hopping technology, is constantly bewildering.
Yasutaka Tsutsui Shared He Had Asked Satoshi Kon to Make a Film Version of His Book
In a behind-the-scenes interview filmed while the Paprika movie was in production, Tsutsui shared that he had approached Kon, who had previously directed 1997's Perfect Blue and Memories (1995), to make an animated adaptation of his book. Tsutsui explained that there were talks to turn his novel into a live-action film, but the budget to make the dream sequences was too expensive.
"The final stage of development, cost became an issue that shut the project down. I knew that a big budget would be required for a movie like this. But I really believed that it would happen. So I was very disappointed when I heard of their decision," said the novelist, now 94.
During the interview, Kon said he agreed to take on the project because he was a fan of the book. The late filmmaker also explained why he wasn't all that strict about making a direct adaptation of the text.
"Remaining rigidly true to the novel is pointless because the novel will always be superior. It is very hard to convey the feeling that one gets from reading Mr. Tsutsui's words. It's tough to recreate that visually. So what I want to do is invoke the atmosphere of a dream while also creating a fundamental plot that will be able to stand on its own as entertainment," said Kon, who died in 2010 at the age of 46.
The film version of Paprika holds a score of 87 percent based on 95 reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. Meanwhile, Tsutsui's 1993 novel has a score of 3.18 out of 5 from 3,888 readers on Goodreads.
