I saw this when it first came out and I didn't get it. Just watched it again and I still don't get it. It's just too bazaar. Good idea and premise but it tries too hard to be, I don't know, artsy-fartsy? for my taste.
shareYeah, it's harper's bazaar.
shareIt is pretty artsy-fartsy.
shareThe movie is about modern life versus primitive.
It was popular in the 60s to question whether society was corrupting or not. That goes back to 1700s French philosophy. Anyway, the advanced people had no challenges and got weird as a result. The primitive people had passion and were living every day like it is important.
That's hippie 60s stuff, but we still hear it today at times.
