w/intro by Sabine Haenni (PMA/American Studies, CU) 1970 > USA > Directed by Michelangelo Antonioni
With Mark Frechette, Daria Halprin
At Zabriskie Point, the United States' lowest elevation point, two perfect strangers, an undergraduate dreamer and a hippie criminal, begin an unrestrained romance, making love on the dusty terrain. Fusing anti-War activism with Flower Child symbolism, Antonioni's only American-made feature is a countercultural adventure soundtracked by The Grateful Dead, Pink Floyd, and The Rolling Stones, among many others.
