cheese factor includes folk music c/o Joan Baez in all the wrong places.  Bruce Dern is a riot with his eco-guerrila seriousness.  the 2 droids, Huey & Dewey, are the pre-cursors to the non-cheese cuteness of the most famous droid: R2-D2. sci-fi for hippies in the hippie era. - @Om* 4/24/00

• sample: "Yeah. That's right. It's real because I picked it and I fixed it. And it has a taste and it has a color. And it has a smell. And it calls back a time when there were flowers all over the Earth. And there were valleys and there were rivers. There were plains of tall green grass that you could lie down in. That you could go to sleep in. And there were things growing all over the place not just in some domed enclosures blasted some millions of miles out into space." - Bruce Dern in _Silent Running_
