Wake Up in Fright (1971) - Bundanyabba, AUS is Hamilton, MT

Daniel and I are sitting in Bernice’s, drinking coffee and waiting for our other buddies, when we somehow get onto the subject of the sun eventually expanding, swallowing the Earth, and turning us all into plasma.I tell him that’s why I’m skeptical of reincarnation. How can we keep being reborn if, eventually, there’s nowhere left to be born?Daniel says reincarnation is already happening constantly. Our breath becomes plant food. We eat the plants. Everything becomes everything else. It’s all in how you look at it.And Wake in Fright is all about how you look at things.A 1971 nightmare set in the Australian Outback: guns, sweat, grime, masculinity, madness—and maybe a little Aristotle?Listen to OMFG—Original Montana Film Guide—as we discuss this timeless movie. And, for God’s sake, don’t get stranded in Bundanyabba.
