    Completely pointless

    You're not gaining anything by watching this, or missing anything by not seeing it. It's exactly what it's described as. Sometimes there's a countdown, sometimes it's blank scratchy film, sometimes there's flashes of words scrolling past. This isn't a movie to be watched, and at 4 hours and 3 minutes long, you'd get the same out of watching 10 seconds as I did out of watching the whole thing. Thank you Criterion for preserving and streaming this, but I also wasted my time to be a Linklater completionist.
