    The movie means alot to me. I grew up on the Farm hippy commune in Tennessee and one day when i was about 19 ,i was having a bad trip .A friend brought the dead movie to my house and said check this out. It was an amazing trip through the movie,starting with the animation,the biker going down the road,beating it down the line,the wheel. Every part was amazing .

    I love this movie. I just watched it again recently (you can purchase it on TH-cam). We saw it in the theater in LA when it first came out. What a treasure. Again in SF when it was rereleased (20 years ago?). This and Chinatown are my favorite movies of all time. How did you get the fire Marshall to green light the flame thing!

    Always wondered what happened to the kid who hated the filming - he said "this bit will never end up in the movie" - but it did! Apt demo of Jerry's Genius to include that. Also, in US Blues, when Phil's plumber (red & white pirate shirt guy) is playing air guitar, it cuts to Jerry actually playing guitar w/the same exact pose. Genius!!!
    A bit of detail I only noticed a few years ago after decades of seeing this movie over & over in all sorts of states of mind: When the space man is playing pinball in space, the skeleton holding the cards is pinging away, seemingly racking up loads of points, but the counter never leaves "000,000" Kind of a statement about the pointlessness of everything.
