a film write and direct by neil young and greendale be little more than an 87 minute music video set to a doxen or so of the songwriter work . in lieu of dialogue and the film rely exclusively on young lyric and which be heavily lace with sociopolitical commentary and to tell the story while actor act out the scene . give the hammy performance and the shoddy graininess of the picture and the effect be the equivalent of young blow up some of his own home movie and release them for public consumption . although there be allegedly a story run through the film and we really have no idea what be go on thanks mainly to the unpolished look of the film and the lack of dialogue and the amateurish ineptitude of the acting . all we get for eighty seven minute be a bunch of age hippy cavort silently through an incoherent narrative while young song play endlessly on the soundtrack . the whole thing turn into a tedious exercise in self indulgence . greendale give off hollywood and low budget movie make a bad name .
