"THE PARALLAX VIEW" TEST FILM IN ITS ENTIRETY
Loading...
Uploaded by THEPARALLAXCORP on Apr 18, 2009
In post-Watergate America, folks were scared. Really scared --- of wire-tapping, of Communism, of the Cold War still raging, of assassination, and of media manipulation.
In Alan J. Pakula's brilliant but under-rated film "The Parallax View," Warren Beatty's character is summoned to The Parallax Corporation to test his emotions, his mental acuity, his allegiances. This is the film he is shown.

wow...

this sequence isn't intended to be a social comentary or thought provoking (at least not to the viewer, but to the character) this is only story related, it's a perversion of the ideals of the time(at the time of the movie of course) which makes perverted characters (not in a sexual sense of course) in order to kill. there is no social comentary because the montage in the beginning explains the "correct" ideals and then perverts them at the end. there is no social commentary in this.

Brilliant upload!

PS and it still delights and scares me in equal measure!

Brilliant film, and a brillaint montage within shown here. 70s US cinema was really the pinnacle. The Americans were far better at producing cynicism with The Dream rather than the fuckyeah dirge they produced from the 80s onwards

-
God I love this movie and THIS scene especially! THANK YOU!
-
Excellent, revealing and great social commentary!
-
5 stars - this was reality
-
One of those kinds of sequences that you won't see in feature films anymore - due to budgetary constraints and vanity projects, a long brilliant and thought-provoking sequence like this just wouldn't make it past the Hollywood suits.

I saw this on a big screen at the National Film Theatre, London, in 2004. It is amazing. Utterly amazing.
