After "Stranger Than Paradise" but before "Clerks" there was "Slacker, a sharp collection of oddballs and misfits just living their lives.

'Slacker' is all one big collection of scenes involving different people just going about their day. It has a natural flow. Each new person that enters the frame hands it off to the next, and so on. Many situations are a bit of a bore, sometimes following in succession. But the weird, eccentric, and funny portions punctuate frequently enough. Interesting film.

This film raises randomness to an art form. A lot goes on, but nothing really happens - it's just people talking about everyday things, getting into everyday situations, and just living a very slacker lifestyle. If you want your kids to know what Gen X meant, this is probably the movie to show them.

This stream of consciousness project is surreal, yet captivating. Linklater captures unique moments in the lives of a massive cast of interesting characters in an art film that focuses on intersecting relationships and moments in time.
