 |  |  | | | | What if you could live forever? The Fountain is an odyssey about one man's eternal struggle to save the woman he loves. His epic journey begins in 16th-century Spain, where conquistador Tomas (Hugh Jackman) commences his search for the Fountain of Youth, the legendary entity believed to grant immortality. As modern-day scientist Tommy Creo, he desperately struggles to find a cure for the cancer that is killing his beloved wife, Isabel (Rachel Weisz). Traveling through deep space as a 26th-century astronaut, Tom begins to grasp the mysteries that have consumed him for a millennium. The three stories converge into one truth, as the Thomas of all periods -- warrior, scientist, and explorer -- comes to terms with life, love, death and rebirth. |

| MovieWeb Reviews: |
 "The Fountain is hyper imaginative in both the story itself as well as how the it is told. By that alone, it is an important cinematic accomplishment and should be seen on those merits."

 "Hugh Jackman really digs deep and searches his soul to pull out the raw emotion that surrounds the character of Tom."
