"Pretty strong meat there from Sam *sniff* Peckinpah."
Posted on 06/29/2010 12:49:25 PM PDT by isom35
the plot: angry farmer becomes a sort of johnny tomato-seed. A futuristic society has outlawed seeds, but 1 farmer prefers to use them because the tomatoes taste better. Authorities destroy his crop, but he remembers he has some spare seeds stored a farmer's museum he maintained. He takes the seeds and travel the country planting them. This movie was in French with subtitles, most likely black & white, unknown what year. I have tried imdb advanced search to no avail. Thanks for any help.
