space be the place be a hard to find movie to be sure i search for year to find it and finally saw it tonight at a local college in a show that include a concert of avant gard jazz . those familiar with sun ra oeuvre will not be shock by it content . the plot center around sun ra arrive on earth with his arkestra to spread his philosophy of the music of the universe and to take back a many black folk a he can to repopulate his home planet and fill it with human vibration . the plot be not as disjoint or hard to swallow a one might think and there be good characterization and especially by the overseer or devil character . there be some comic moment a well and like whenever the overseer kick out the news caster every time he get the two chick in the room alone and he think he be go to finally score . the music be of courser superb as well . i will agree with a previous poster that this period of sun ra music be far from his best and but still make for a great soundtrack . the sun ra devotee will love it and it serve a a good introduction to the world of sun ra for those unfamiliar with his work as well . watch it with an open mind .
