I see this clip a bit differently than do others here. A pair of showbiz neophytes, with no acting experience prior to "Zabriskie Point" (and chosen for the movie in part for that very reason) are led out and expected to instantly and expertly participate in "witty" talk-show banter of a kind that Brooks, Reed and Cavett, older and far more media-savvy, toss off like nothing. They're mocked, almost, from the minute they appear. How reassuring this must have been to mainstream America in 1970.

I love this interview. This was a different time. The actors are so honest, candid, and unrehearsed that it had me rolling on the floor laughing. This could never happen today. Today material for interviews are covered before the guest comes on. Kelly and Michael for example will start with You grew up in, or some other lead in for the guest to discuss. They'll discuss that one or two other things already covered, before the show, then plug the movie, or T.V show, that they came on to plug. Today it's all a straight formula, complete with yelling, screaming, jumping up and down, for every single guest that comes on the show.

I honestly think that's the nostalgia talking. How do you know they didn't rehearse this? Authenticity, it seems, has always been fake, except for a few special people. And who are Kelly and Michael? You can't even keep up with who's ACTUALLY on the air today...at least it's entertaining.

Mark Fréchette was apparently one of several victims of sexual abuse by Rev. Laurence Francis Xavier Brett of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Bridgeport in Connecticut. This could go a long way to understanding his hostility and the social dysfunction which ultimately led to his imprisonment and death.

A lot of Zabriskie Point was improvised, but it was pure Antonioni. The visuals are stunning & the desert "orgy" & "blow-up" scenes are memorable, to say the least. But he's the star of the movie. He minimized the characters & story with a petrifying pace & space like royal mummies & ruins in an archeological dig. He imposed covert aesthetic values above overt political ones. He was a landscape architect & a topological surveyor of culture who mapped his movies & put the art into artifacts.

Antonioni made seven or eight masterpieces. Daria and Mark here are unaware that they have worked on an extraordinary film, and they look like two ungrateful idiots. The film has many levels of interpretation, political, social, poetic, aesthetic, ethical... but "the actors" are oblivious. Even from recent interviews Daria seems completely out of touch with that artistic experience. Nevertheless, it has to be said that Darie and Mark played very well in the film. They made two unforgettable characters.

This movie still fascinates me - and I was born in 1970 the same year the movie was released. Someone below commented that, ' Thank God, true Spirit still shines.' 'There have been very few people as beautiful, as Daria and Mark...' 'How clear is their beauty...' I would believe that this is the way to look at 'Zabriskie Point' - as piece of poetry. Some XX century's Romeo and Juliet. Maestro Antonioni could have definitely created a whole lot better 'story' if he believed he needed it. The meek people, the compassionate people, the people of beauty, the Art creators, the God's people were all outraged by recent Vietnam war, the cruelty, hate and controversy it created. What one could think - Jesus Christ was himself outraged once - to all the traders selling in the House Of Prayers, the king Solomon's temple in Jerusalem. Yes, Antonioni's 'Zabriskie Point' is an outburst of emotions against cruelty, against all those stony hearts that create the miserable side of our otherwise beautiful life. There isn't much wisdom in wild emotions, fact, but thank God for 'Zabriskie Point'! We all see it's beauty.

Zabriskie Point is a masterpiece of cinema like all Antonioni’s films and despite the failure of Freschette to tune in to its glory. Halprin was on the director’s wavelength and this was all that was necessary to achieve the film’s complex and subtle ends Freschette played himself enough to complete the film’s vision. Not a nice person either the character or the “actor” that portrayed it I don’t suppose it would have been made if the studio had realised before shooting what Antonioni was up to. But then he went on to make “The Passenger” to fulfill his contract to make three movies in Hollywood, and this turned out to be one of the great thrillers of all time
@bondurango16 жыл бұрын
The film is a classic. But when it was first released it bombed in the U.S. & was despised by both the politcal right & the left. It's one of a trio of English language films made by Antonioni. I'm surprised Sam Shepard, who was one of the screenwriters & was already acting in plays, wasn't cast in the lead. Rex Reed, a horrible, flaming film critic, in those days, probably hated it because he's not bothering to praise it, here. I think Pauline Kael was the only critic who defended it.

Linked in after watching ZP on TCM , its January 29,2023 and its the first time I've ever heard of this film. I've read just about all there is and am amazed at the facts, Mark dying in prison from a 150 lb barbell, Daria hooking up with and having children with Dennis Hopper and she is still alive and vibrant, the music, the fleeting glimpse of Harrison Ford in 1970. This film was panned by those that don't understand the difference of a so called counterculture film and a film like the ones bette davis made, much like Easy Rider this film attempts to show an alternative way of story telling and maybe experimental ideas and thats not a road well traveled. This film wil make you feel something unique or leave scratching you head depending on your own personality. Its worth noting some of the familar faces, Paul Fix, the guy who played Bookman the library dick from Seinfeld, the cop in the desert at the portapots, very familar, and then there's the music, Pink Floyd in their early Joe Strummer days, the Grateful Dead, Roy Orbison,Patti Page. . . This is one of those flix you gotta watch several times to absorb its flavor. Jim Morrison met the director and gave him a song but it wasn't used, Pink Floyd did a song which much later morphed into Wish You Were Here on Dark Side Of The Moon.. check out the interviews of Daria and Mark on Dick Cavett Show with guest Mel Brooks and Rex Reed...

Mark and Daria were a couple. She moved into the "community" with Mark for a short while before she left him. He attempted to rob a local Boston bank for which he went to prison for 6-15 years. In prison he tragically died, while weight-lifting (suffocated). She married for four years and had two kids. She later straightened out to head the Tamala Institute in California with her Mother. The film: beautiful to look at with beautiful people. Broken down into sequences of youth vrs. establishment, mostly the cops, plus borrowing an airplane, an "orgy in the desert", and some specular explosions at the end. Sad.

Call them airheads if you like, but at least he was honest in that the film didn't turn out like he hoped it would, and that Antonioni did two non-actors no favors by letting them fail onscreen and teaching them nothing. All that said, I love Zabriskie Point, and nearly all the rest of Antonioni's films.

true, Mel Lyman often split up couples that he thought were concerned about each other instead of focusing on him and HIS needs/wants.

He also got his goons to try to shut down KPFK because they tried to improve the sound quality of his badly-recorded tape when they played it. However no heroin or cocaine here. The only drug they're on is Mel Lyman.

The bank robbery was a tragic psycho-drama. To protest the corrupt Nixon administration Mark and two fellow members of Mel Lyman's cult concluded that since the group's money was on deposit in a Federal Bank they would need to remove their funds by force. They intended to accomplish this with empty guns. One of the the three "robbers" was shot and killed and the other two were convicted and sentenced to 6 to 12 years in federal prison.
