... the essential BP movie, I think (the word means "world in chaos" or
"life
which needs changing" in either Hopi or Brooklynese).  Typical audience
quote: "I was forced to watch this film against my will and I have never
quite recovered."

It's playing at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on March 22, 2000 - tickets
are
$48 at

the Piney Woods!   The only other showings this winter/spring are in ...
Australia.
