Other guys justly tried to describe how this movie feels like, and what to expect when you go see it. I want to focus on something else.
This crazy and sharp movie contains countless hilarious short scenes - almost like slapstick - visual phrases that became just like lingual idioms to me and all my friends who saw the movie (yes, back in 1983).
Even though I saw the movie at least a dozen times in Cinema, I estimate the time I spent in remembering parts of it, laughing loud (having people ponder my sanity in work meetings, where some association brought those phrases back to my mind) totals in many hundreds of hours.
I wish I could meet the makers and thank them for this sharp and sobering "gift".
I recommend the movie to anyone - but especially to Americans, that many times are not exposed enough to real free minds, and their art.
The comedy is changing flavours like mad - it's sour and sweet and hopeful and despairing, its sharp and bitter hot, then chaos, then hope again. It's like a being thrown to a washing machine together with dozen colored clothes.
