The Enigma of Kaspar Hauser

I didn't like this movie at all. I know this was supposed to be based on a true story but the execution could've been so much more interesting because it relates to Psychology and Biology. If this had been a documentary, it could've been better because the audiences could have gotten experts' opinions on the matter. Instead, the audiences get an extremely slow and unfocused film about a man that was raised in a shack, almost uninfluenced by the rest of society. The tiresome factor matches watching paint dry. This film being released in the 70's isn't an excuse either because there were a lot of great films that came from that era. The running time is also a con because it's almost two hours long. It was agonizing watching this movie. Avoid it if you can.
