Synopsis
Decades after a nuclear war has devastated the earth and left the survivors as scavengers, a young couple named Glen and Randa who come from a close knit tribe in a rural area, set out to discover the remains of the world that came before them. They know nothing of the outside world, except that Glen has read about and seen pictures of a great city in some old comic books and he and Randa set out to find this city.
Reception
The movie received generally favorable reviews. Time Magazine rated the movie one of the top 10 of 1971[3] and stated, “'Glen and Randa' is one of the best and most original American films of the year".[4] Time magazine also wrote, "there is no disputing his distinctive cinematic flair or the definitive excellence of his relatively unknown actors".[2] The New York Times stated, "'Glen and Randa' is neither a successful nor an entertaining movie, but it is sober, and what mind it has is high. Thus I'm completely mystified by the X rating that has been attached to it, apparently because of its nudity and love-making. They might be thought obscene only by stretching a censor's imagination."[1]
