Description
Highly praised -- in fact, a little over-praised -- sci-fi tale of
poor Scott Carey, a guy whose exposure to both heavyduty
insecticide and a drifting cloud of atomic radiation has him
gettin' shorter and shorter. Many evocative and well-remembered
sequences (meeting the dwarf woman, the fights with the housecat
and the spider), but the ending is either hopeful (he keeps
shrinking but realizes that he'll always remain himself) or
nihilistic (how small can he get, after all?), depending on your
personal perceptions. Maybe not a classic, but worth seeing once.
