'Bandersnatch' Wins Outstanding
Television Movie at 2019 Emmy Awards The episode of Netflix's hit
series 'Black Mirror' beat out HBO's
'My Dinner with Herve' and Amazon's 'King Lear.' The choose-your-own-adventure
style sci-fi thriller is the first interactive
Netflix film geared towards an adult audience. Set in London during the 1980s,
'Bandersnatch' takes its title from a
choose-your-own-adventure book over
which the main character, Stefan, is obsessed. A developer in the early
days of gaming, Stefan dreams of
adapting the book into a subversive video game. 'Bandersnatch' allows the viewer
to choose different paths for
Stefan to take as he teeters on
madness while working on the game. The movie has
five different endings. 'Bandersnatch' is directed by David Slade
and stars Fionn Whitehead and Will Poulter.
