THE LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH
Dir. Robert Amram, 1979
USA, 90 min.
"The day of the Lord is near in the valley of decision.
Based on the book of the same name, narrated by Orson Welles, THE LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH checks in on where our collective eschatological heads were at by the late seventies. It's about Biblical prophecy in the sense that F FOR FAKE is about art forgery: it's true, but that's just the start. An overview/reenactment St. John The Divine's time of vision on the island of Patmos meets a series of talking heads from sociologists to celebrities pontificating on revelations of tragedy to come, THE LATE GREAT PLANET EARTH mixes Biblical prophecy and sociographic speculation in a way that regularly blurs the line between Evangelical and New Age with plenty of memento mori to go around. All that and deep implications that Nixon might be the antichrist.
