I just watched Silent Running with Bruce Dern. It was really good. I liked the little helper robots in it.

That movie struck me as a kid in the 1970s - the message of conservation
and the juxtaposition of folk music in space. Was that Joan Baez?

Those were the names he gave them. They ended up being his only friends after he went a little crazy.

Hello Elmer Quinn!

That movie struck me as a kid in the 1970s - the message of conservation
and the juxtaposition of folk music in space. Was that Joan Baez?

Yes Joan Baez song was at the end of the movie.

It's actually a Peter Schickele song, but only sung by Baez.

Baez = a distinctive confident voice, good choice!

Thanks, the movie was a juxtaposition of environmental conservatism with a triple homicide and suicide and a song written by Peter Schickele and sung by the lovely Joan Baez.

On the YouTube channel, Movies, Music & Monsters, there's an episode that goes behind the scenes. Good stuff.

If you'd like to watch it online for free, you can find it here:
https://movies4kto.to/movie/watch-silent-running-free-12984

The downside is you might run into buffering delays along the way. Also, you have to double-click on everything, don't know why.

Re: Re: silent running

What a great movie - I remember seeing this in the 70's!

Of course I was young then, my reaction now might be a little different. Haven't seen if for a long time though.

Bruce Dern was good.
