George Lucas's directorial debut, based on his short film of the same name, is a fascinating Orwell-esque look at the future and how consumerism basically consumes everyone, which eventually prompts the title character (Robert Duvall, just before his star-making work in The Godfather) to rebel against the law after he falls in love with his roommate (Maggie McOmie). Donald Pleasance and Don Pedro Colley are also good as his mysterious confederates.
The aforementioned student film is included in the bonus disc along with great documentaries about the making of the film and its production company American Zoetrope.
Not surprisingly, this film, a flop upon its initial release, gained more attention following Lucas's mind-blowing success with Star Wars.
