a bad film about hippies

At the time 'Professor Columbus' was produced, back in the late Sixties, one of its female stars predicted it to be miserable. And right she was.

However, today this film may have some nostalgic charm to those interested in the hippies and their culture. Who were booming at the time.

We are also presented with famous Dutch actor Jeroen Krabbé, in a very early stage of his career. Acting out a not-too-convincing king of a hippie commune. Which is a contradiction in itself, for the hippies were sternly averse to any form of hierarchy.

The female star predicting 'Professor Columbus' to be miserable was Dutch celebrity Phil Bloom. She acquired a short-lived world fame by appearing naked on Dutch television, back then a shocking novelty all over the Western world.

Bloom was motivated at the time by a genuine desire to loosen the rigid manners & morals of her parent's society. Being educated at an art academy, she did so very well. Thus turning herself into an icon of the Sixties' revolution in the Netherlands.
