The Adventure of Faustus Bidgood
A Comedy of Destiny, Love and Intrigue
Price: CDN$24.95
|
A film unlike any other produced in Canada,
both an epic struggle for an independent Newfoundland and a tall tale about one man's increasingly precarious view of reality. Faustus Bidgood is a polyester-clad milquetoast functionary in the provincial Department of Education who, in alternating fantasies, imagines the gory murder of his tormenting co-workers, and dreams himself President of the People's Republic of Newfoundland. Along the way there are murders, angels, mental hospitals, Mephistopheles, a love triangle, a birth in the rafters above the stage for the annual government employee's benefit, concert for crippled children, a film within the film and another film within that film, blackmail, a bizarre theory of total education and more!
