Yesterday I watched the Peter Sellers movie, Being There, and it really bored the heck out of me. I love dry humor, but I got tired of where this movie was going after about 20 minutes.

So did you think Chance Gardener was Christ like,
or was Christ more like Chance Gardener?



edit:
If you can, try to watch it to the end. You may find that it was not intended to be all that funny....

I watched it all painfully to the end, but I don't have a theory on that ending yet. I now sort of remember some movie posters of a man and an umbrella, and I know it's sort of a famous film. Overall though, I felt it was kind of maudlin(and not in a good way, ;~). It didn't leave me with a warm fuzzy feeling.

It seemed to me that the ending was a bit of a surprise
to some of the people who saw it. I did think that during the
movie Chance appeared child like, and with out any evil
intent or malice. I must say the grave side scene was very
reminiscent of what the big government establishment looks
like it is trying to do with Donald Trump right now.

I was glad I saw it....

Considering the innocent way Chance was portrayed, the ending didn't surprise me that much. That actually was one of the best parts of the movie for me because it left something to the imagination. I just think they overplayed whatever statement they were trying to make during the general exposition of the film, and could have edited it down quite a bit.
