I found a link for it here...

I guess you can say it is a documentary. There are no words, only video. If you have 1 1/2 hours to kill, I suggest you watch it. It helps if your in a mellow mood (and you have a bottle of wine). It starts out very slow, but shows several beautiful landscapes. It begins to speed up (to say the least) at about 45 minutes. I almost feel a little depressed after watching it. I kind of feel like a worker ant! Are we better now then we were? I guess it was made in the 70's and it is funny to see the people from back then. Between about 45-75 minutes, it starts showing people and things are in very fast time-lapse motion.

I saw this film when it first came out. Fantastic film. It stuck with me for years and when DVD's finally came out, I bought it. Smile

My brother and his friends used to watch it while stoned....

I'm thinking this is why I never tried drugs.

I saw it years ago. I even wrote a thread about it on A2K in 2002.

It is quite a trip. I have it on DVD. Next time that I watch it, I'll have something liquid to go along with it!

Just checked it out on Hulu for a few minutes. No way. This flick needs a large screen, surround sound and a big subwoofer to get the most out of it! At least it will give someone who has not seen it some idea of the film.
