story of a man who have unnatural feeling for a pig . start out with a opening scene that be a terrific example of absurd comedy . a formal orchestra audience be turn into an insane and violent mob by the crazy chanting of it singers . unfortunately it stay absurd the whole time with no general narrative eventually make it just too off put . even those from the era should be turn off . the cryptic dialogue would make shakespeare seem easy to a third grader . on a technical level it good than you might think with some good cinematography by future great vilmos zsigmond . future star sally kirkland and frederic forrest can be see briefly .
