what a depressing sad movie that was-
I disliked that movie. The (’they’ being Sean Penn, the writer / director) portrayed the main character as a sort of messiah of communism. everywhere he went he was instantly welcomed, people instantly loved him, they broke down and cried when it was time for him to move on. But move on he must, for some reason. I was glad after 2 hours of that when that Mary Sue character died from being a dummy.
Waste of a life because his parents let him grow up liberal.
It really was. He was young and an idiot, and didnt have time to grow up and mature.
Agnes Varda directed an even more brutal (though different) story about a wandering young woman who would heed no one, VAGABOND.
