Director: Michelangelo Antonioni
Rated: R
Runtime: 111 minutes
Writer-director Michelangelo Antonioni’s vision of late-1960s America is on full display in this tale that mixes romance and revolution as it explores the love affair between a pot-smoking secretary (Daria Halprin) and a rebel seeking a cause (Mark Frechette).
While the film was panned by most critics upon release, its critical standing has since increased and it is noted for its cinematography, (some of the film’s scenes were shot on location at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley), use of music, and direction.
The soundtrack to “Zabriskie Point” included music from Pink Floyd, The Youngbloods, Kaleidoscope, Jerry Garcia, Patti Page, Grateful Dead, the Rolling Stones, and John Fahey. Roy Orbison wrote and sang the theme song, over the credits, called “So Young (Love Theme From “Zabriskie Point”).”
