In honor of the 20 year anniversary of the Lost pilot, which flew into our lives on Sept. 22, 2004, I decided to do a full series rewatch. There is no official reunion to mark the crash of Oceanic 815, but a new documentary, Getting Lost, takes us back to The Island. Getting Lost is making the festival circuit will hopefully be streaming on one of the services you currently pay for (ugh). More than anything, the documentary is a love letter to the community of Lost, aka the fans, but it’s also a fun behind the scenes retrospective that acknowledges some of the wrongs of the showrunners. I do not mean the finale.
Safe to say there are spoilers ahead.
To talk about Lost is to talk about a moment in time, historically, culturally, and personally. Historically, we were reeling after 9/11, so a story about a plane crash tracks. The castaways were afraid of “The Others,” and had a hard time working together with their own allies. The oft repeated mantra of “live together, die alone,” echoed the post 9/11 rally of “united we stand.” Both in real life and on The Island, we loved to figure things out but, even if we got answers, we still questioned reality. Knowing which leader to follow often felt like an exercise in faith.
