Increasingly dated youth film of the late 1960s was the first directing effort by actor-producer Schroeder, who was heavily involved in the post-New Wave cinema. MORE (presumably referring to what the 1960s youth wanted) stars Grunberg as a German college student who decides to drop out of society soon after completing his studies. He hitchhikes to Paris and meets Chanderli, a thief and gambler. Then Grunberg meets Farmer, an American expatriate and, despite Chanderli's warnings, falls in love. Farmer introduces Grunberg to drugs (marijuana at first), and he becomes obsessed with her free and easy manner. When she travels to Ibiza, in the Mediterranean, Grunberg participates in a robbery with Chanderli to raise cash so that he can follow her. Once on the island, Grunberg discovers Farmer living in an expensive villa with ex-Nazi-turned-drug-runner Engelmann. Soon after, Grunberg learns of Farmer's heavy drug use and a lesbian relationship with her friend, Wink. Farmer persuades Grunberg to go to bed with Wink and then to sample some heroin. Soon Farmer and Grunberg are full-blown addicts, and their relationship rapidly deteriorates. After an attempt to cure themselves of their habit (by ingesting large amounts of LSD) fails, Farmer walks out--leaving Grunberg to an eventual overdose that kills him. Grim and realistic, MORE is Schroeder's insightful expression of concern. Schroeder depicts his contemporaries as wasted by the negative, aimless by-products of the youth counterculture. Unfortunately, most of MORE's appeal for modern-day youth is in the popular rock band Pink Floyd's performance of the soundtrack music. The movie, in fact, is often double-billed with Pink Floyd concert films at revival houses. leave a comment
