I found the Wall to be extremely eye opening and disturbing at the same time. It truly opened up the possible horrors lurking in the back of the human psyche and the self destructive tendencies associated with it. I was mystified by the abstract structures and what they could be, some of them resonated very clearly with me and I felt as if I was inside the mind of the creator running in a maze away from a night mare. This movie seemed to be an escape from the world and an exercise in torture all rolled into one. In many ways I thought it showed the fear and desire to escape for a generation scared by what happened to their parents (The World War II generation) and of the dangers of their impending future ( a possible Nuclear War). Given this utter terror and struggle for identity in a recently socially liberated world, this movie makes sense in a disturbing way. This movie simply blew my mind, enough said.
