I hadn't watched the 1982 movie 'Tron' until seeing news of the passing of actress Cindy Morgan on December 30th, 2023.

I only knew her from the movie 'Caddyshack', which was and still is, one of my favourite movies.
'Tron' was pretty trippy I thought, as far as the visuals went anyway.
But I couldn't help thinking this story would be something Philp K. Dick would write.
Dick did die in 1982, the year this movie hit cinema screens.

But 'Tron' was directed and co-written by Steven Lisberger who was born in 1951, the Year of the Rabbit>;-)
And when I looked at the credits for 'Tron' there were more rabbit holes than 'The Matrix', which was made in 1999, the Year of the Rabbit>;-)
The music for 'Tron' was done by Wendy Carlos, who was born in 1939, the Year of the Rabbit, and also did the music for Kubrick's film 'A Clockwork Orange'.
Kubrick passed away in 1999 the Year of the Rabbit, by the way, when 'Eyes Wide Shut' was released to the cinema screen.
Barnard Hughes, who plays Dr. Walter Gibbs, a co-founder of ENCOM running the company's science division, who creates the SHV 20905 digitizing laser with Dr. Baines's assistance and also provides the uncredited voice of the Master Control Program's original incarnation in 'Tron' was born in 1915, the Year of the Rabbit>;-)
2023 may well be over, but the Year of the Rabbit is still alive until the New Moon in February 2024.

And Jack mentions the 1927 movie 'Metropolis' in his post I noticed, and 1927 was also the Year of the Rabbit>;-)
Life isn't a destination, as they say>;-)
