'70s Horror and Sci-Fi • "The Noah" (1975)

"There's no one left anywhere."  If you can make it through the interminable first half, the second half of this end-of-civilization story is hellishly ambitious, if still moviemaking on a dime.  This Noah's ark is populated by phantoms of his mind.  The main dots to connect: the aural collage of sounds of mid-20th Century history with the presence of "Noah" (Robert Strauss), all by his lonesome on a deserted island--well, on a deserted Earth--as (he says) radiation clouds occasionally drift by.  Out of all the voices in the collage, JFK's stands out, stirringly.  No wonder we listened to him.  Curiously touching: the singing of 'Auld Lang Syne" over shots of windblown palm trees.  Robert Strauss is best remembered for "Stalag 17" and, lesserly, "The Atomic Kid".🙂
