Why today

22 October is Jeff Goldblum’s birthday. In Jurassic Park, Goldblum plays chaos theorist Ian Malcolm, whose scepticism challenges John Hammond’s belief that the park can control nature. In the genetics lab, when Henry Wu asks whether the all-female dinosaurs will breed, Malcolm answers: “Life, uh... finds a way.”

Control was always going to need a backup plan.
