I had NEVER heard of the movie! Montauk6 Feb 2021 #3

Yeah, I have no memory of it either, but you're right it definitely relates to now. Biophilic Feb 2021 #4

Now I think (hate to be too sure about someone else's motives) I know why you posted this. That was a long time ago. So much has changed and yet not so much.

I just stumbled on a clip today and thought, "wow, how did I miss this???" So, I rented it off Amazon and watched it.

It didn't have the direct KICK of "The Candidate" or "A Face In The Crowd"; it seemed very allegorical. The best way I can sum it up is like listening to an intense conversation from another room. I guess I should watch it again.

But its bottom line definitely relates to what's happening today.

Good grief, that was 50 years ago. That old adage 'the more things change the more they stay the same.'
