Event
Putney Swope
(Robert Downey, USA, 1969, Beta-SP, 84 min) Robert Downeys brazen and bizarre satire on race relations and consumerism became the first major hit from the Underground. When the token black man at a Madison Avenue ad agency is accidentally put in charge, he replaces its white board members with militant soul brothers and creates a series of unconventional (and hilarious) campaigns. Bursting at the seams with irrelevancies, obscenities and improvisations, both the films form and its message condemn of all systems of social order.
