Post Description
More is an English-language drama-romance film written and directed by Barbet Schroeder, in his theatrical feature film directorial debut, released in 1969. Starring Mimsy Farmer and Klaus Grünberg, it deals with heroin addiction as drug fascination on the island of Ibiza, Spain. The film was made in the moment of the political fallout, and is a fantastic example of the counterculture in the early 1960s within the drug experimentation, so-called "free love", and refers to the European youth culture.
The film screenplay was written by Paul Gégauff and Barbet Schroeder with the original story by Schroeder. Art directed by Fran Lewis and Nestor Almendros. It features soundtracks written and performed by the English rock band Pink Floyd, released as the album More. Schroeder's inspiration for the film a little bit came from the counterculture tradition of the 1960s, between addiction of drug, sexual freedom and beauty of life that refers New Wave film. Real drugs were used in scenes showing the use of marijuana, heroin, and LSD. Production began in 1968, and the film was partially funded by Jet Films with an executive produced by Les Films du Losange of a slight budget.
Upon its release on August 4, 1969, More achieved critical acclaim. It was selected to be screened in the Cannes Classics section of the 2015 Cannes Film Festival at Buñuel Theatre. On April 5, 2005, a DVD version of More, was released by Home Vision Entertainment.
