Review title: Searching for contemporary redeeming value
Product review: Certainly this was of a piece with the time it was made and so serves a historical purpose. Perhaps there were many of this sort and there are certainly aspects that point at things like the MP's and the Beatles' own movies -- heck this is Ringo after all. Peter is not the same as many of his other films and that might make for an interesting discussion. My hope was that it would be useful in a classroom situation but I am left searching for a contemporary redeeming value other than remembering how weird things could get, or can get. I can use "Being There" but not "The Magic Christian". Is it just my own lack of imagination?Certainly the message is not lost on anyone today but neither does anyone need to hear it. Pierre Bourdieu "Firing Back" may be ignored as easily. This message is lost to "Losing Ground".It at least completes my Peter Sellers collection.
