Starbuck and the implications of the sexual revolution
I've got a ticket to see Starbuck a few weeks from now, a film that gets into some of the implications of the sexual revolution. The brief description of the film at IMDB:
At 42, David lives the life of an irresponsible adolescent. He coasts through life with minimal effort and maintains a complicated relationship with Valerie, a young policewoman. Just as she tells him she's pregnant, David's past resurfaces. Twenty years earlier, he began providing sperm to a fertility clinic in exchange for money. He discovers he's the father of 533 children, 142 of whom have filed a class action lawsuit to determine the identity of their biological father, known only by the pseudonym Starbuck.
Now it seems that the New York Times is also beginning to pay attention to the issues that this film raises.
(What is it with French-Canadian films? I caught Incendies last year, and thought it was a really interesting film).
