Curriculee Curricula is quite a curious little film from 1978 that meanders through the corridors of academia with a rather bewildered plumber named Benny. His interactions with the overly intellectual characters create this strange blend of comedy and absurdity. The performances are a bit offbeat, almost like they’re improvising around a loose script, which adds to the film’s charm. The atmosphere is punctuated by a laid-back, almost whimsical vibe, emphasizing the disconnect between Benny and the scholarly world. It’s definitely a unique take on the clash of social classes, wrapped in a music genre that doesn’t take itself too seriously. You don’t see many films like this that play with such an odd premise.
Curriculee Curricula has had limited release formats over the years, making it a bit of a rarity among collectors. It was initially available on VHS, but the DVD releases have become even harder to find. There's a niche interest in its quirky take on academia, which has sparked some curiosity among collectors who appreciate unconventional narratives. Its distinctive style and themes may resonate with those who enjoy offbeat comedies or are drawn to the peculiarities of 1970s cinema.
