Yeah, I still haven't seen the movie and am waiting for a decent preservation to watch it.
You're in for a treat! It's definitely non-conventional, but it's a great example of 60s-70s American cinema when directors were attempting to defy cinematic standards, and studios - desperate to keep people coming to cinemas - gave them free reign. Of course, those films didn't really bring people back to the cinemas and the film almost bankrupted American Zoetrope and paved the way for more mainsteam blockbusters.
It's also great to watch back to back with Star Wars since you can see influences between the two.
