I took this as Antonioni flipping off America, which I’m fine with. The film is beautiful to look at. The acting is bad, I think that was on purpose, I don’t think Antonioni wanted good actors, he wanted bad actors to display the US as a country full of fakes - which it is. The ending, the blowing up of capitalism is great, and the desert orgy, I feel was commenting that the idea of free love is a waste of activity.

    No problem, I just wish there'd be more discussion, but it's going okay. I kinda hoped we can move off directors in future cups, like a four discipline cup: actors in one part of the draw, DPs, Editors and Composers in the other three, 8 each, double elimination, until one stands in each group, then the four face off.

    Yeah, it is, but I've felt that discussion this time is a little more more than past cups
