I've seen this movie twice, both times at Cornell in the late 70's, where
it became a minor cult movie.  It's light, but profound, an anarchist
fantasy of a rare sort.  It's distribution has been spotty, however; as
far as I know, it's never played in the Boston area, for example.  I'm
glad other people enjoyed it as much as I did.
