Ugh! Antonioni lost it when he decided to take his camera off alienated rich people. Still, I'd rather watch this than The Passenger. A mediocre movie that ends with one of the greatest scenes ever committed to film.
I just picked up a tape of the Barbet Schroeder film La Vallée which I had not seen before but also features an original Pink Floyd soundtrack. A group of hippies in New Guinea search for a shangri-la type of place. It wasn't as good as More but has a lot of parallels with Zabriskie Point. Dunno if you've seen it. It has the former ya-ya girl cum actress Bulle' Ogier in it. She is great.
