New & Used Car Salesman

About This Movie

So, here’s a curious one: 'New & Used Car Salesman' from '73, directed by an unknown hand. It’s got this oddball vibe, you know? Wegman, with his unique brand of humor, presents a surreal take on the commercial world. The way he juxtaposes lewdness with the absurdity of car sales really grabs you. There's a deliberate pacing that almost feels like a critique of the advertising industry. The practical effects are minimal, but they add to the offbeat charm. You can tell it’s not trying to be anything more than an odd commentary, and that in itself makes it distinct in its own right. Definitely not your typical fare, but that’s what makes it intriguing for collectors.

Finding 'New & Used Car Salesman' can be a bit of a treasure hunt, as it’s not widely circulated compared to mainstream titles from the era. Various formats have surfaced over time, but good condition copies in a collector's circle are still somewhat rare. The film’s eccentricity and commentary on marketing strategies have sparked niche interest among avant-garde cinema enthusiasts, making it a peculiar yet fascinating point of discussion in a collection.
