Similarities to The Fountain?


I'm watching it right now (it's on TMC or something) and, although it could be the glue I've been huffing, it has a remarkable similarity to The Fountain.

To wit:

*3 timelines, hundreds of years apart, one in the past, one modern day, and one in the future (in space, no less).

*A quest set upon by three generations of the main character.

*One actor portraying the same basic character in the three time periods, and in the space segments, portraying it with a shaved head.

*Questions about life/death, the afterlife, love and loss of love.

*And both were struggles for the director to get their vision to the screen.

Just sayin.
