Recommendation

THX - 1138, dir. George Lucas, 1971, with Robert Duvall and Donald Pleasance. Set in the 25th century, a man and a woman rebel against a rigidly controlled society that exists entirely inside a world of simulation and consumption. Interesting: Jean Baudrillard would later discuss these ideas in some depth in his work of the 80s and the 90s.
