O Dreamland

I enjoyed this on two levels. First of all, it showed us the numbness of the Western people. Obviously, the camera captured people in an almost catatonic way. This is an "amusement" park. Hardly anyone seems to be amused. Even the normally titillating freak shows and man's inhumanity to man don't seem to grab anyone. If anything, they seem to embrace the malaise of the people. Also, I was a little boy when these shows were available. I did the rides. I played the games. I saw Hitler's dead body in a sideshow. O Dreamland is such a great title.
