Mark Frechette & Daria Halprin from ZABRISKIE POINT

They aren't stupid and they represented themselves in the right way. They are simpy two individuals that refuse to be part of the capitalist order and they don't care about their public image.
They are beautiful and so real. I'd like to see the second part of this interview.

I understand why Mark is pissed off. I mean, the least the host could have done is to watch the damn movie before having him as a guest.

Died in weight room at Massachusetts Correctional Institution with a 150-pound weight bar pressed against his throat. Ruled an accident

Could there be a more arrogant, stupid, and dull prick in the world than Mark Frechette? I want to dig him up anf kill him again.. What a fucking boor.

Thanks for posting this! I didn't know that *anybody* did any promotion for Zabriskie Point. I guess this not even promotion, as Mark tells Dick to save his money and not see it.

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.

A very awkward interview I think.

Its funny that Easy Rider is mentioned.. as Daria went on to marry Dennis Hopper!

Daria seems uncomfortable. Pink Floyd's role was minimal and Antonioni was never happy with what they played (according to Roger Waters interview). This movie is amazing and could have been more, I think things just didnt come through for this it.

i finally realised that this was on my Dick Cavett dvd's. I also have "ZABRISKIE POINT" on DVD. Pink Floyd rules, and the film was a box office bomb. Mark Frechette is dead.

Mel Brooks was the most interesting person on the whole show- which is not difficult. The other two are just bland, empty shells, why bother interviewing them ?
