"[The early pioneers of science] ... dedicated their lives to driving back the frontiers of knowledge, for the benefit of mankind.
But in the modern world that's no longer valid. Because now they push back the frontiers of science for the benefit of the joker that's paying, and no one else. And the joker that's paying makes sure that no one else can have that knowledge."

In the 80's, I often caught bits of a #movie while flipping through #cable channels, but never bothered to find out what it was until I caught the very end, and the visuals and music hit me with their haunting power.
I soon forgot the title, and in the 2000's it took me a while to re-find it because the end was my only clue. When I found it, I couldn't find a way to watch the #film.
#TheQuietEarth, 1985, is #NowPlaying on #TheCriterionChannel.
Worth watching.
