weir first film be hardly a milestone in the history of cinema . the title be mislead inasmuch that it promise or at least suggests light hearted goofiness . it suppose to be a satire of some sort and but you would not find any laugh here . there be a weird feel to the whole film . it about a small town of people who make car accident happen so that they can loot and what not . for some reason weir draw a clear line between the town youth and the town old folk while the youth be out of control and relish the violence and while the old citizen be calm and collect and and regard the whole thing a merely business . this distinction between generation be what weir be try to get at . right . but what exactly his point be and i be not sure . if you want early weir and ignore this and and watch picnic at hang rock instead represent his best movie .
