Thanks for the Lamy Homo pointer. Very interesting. You can occasionally find this thing on Amazon, I am really hoping to get it someday.

That’s Job, isn’t it? The guy in the Old Testament who God kept throwing awful things at.

hi raincoaster,
(please forgive any bad manners, I’m new to the net)
re:greaser’s palace: I remember watching this in the theater, I must have been 15 (early 70s), it was magic, unforgettable. (never could find the DVD)
You seem good at deciphering allegories, there must be one here too: one character in the movie is a settler trudging along with wife, kid & canestooga who gets an arrow in the thigh (shooter unseen), stuggles painfully to wrench it out,
only to have another one immediately strike him in the same spot, over & over throughout the movie. Any thoughts ?
p.s.:Lamy Homo: “ecce homo” is how they reportedly introduced Jesus to Pilatus (here’s the man)
