Legitimately impressive that this released in the same calendar year as MLK's assassination. A timeline from conception to completion that short in length would basically be unheard of today. Plenty of films attempt to exist within a cultural zeitgeist, but this might be the most "in the moment" film ever made.
In contrast, now we get IP slop like The Angry Birds Movie or whatever that have to go through so much red tape and production time that they release 5 years after they're relevant.
