    I just watched Silent Running with Bruce Dern. It was really good. I liked the little helper robots in it.

    That movie struck me as a kid in the 1970s - the message of conservation
    and the juxtaposition of folk music in space. Was that Joan Baez?
    Yes Joan Baez song was at the end of the movie.

    Those were the names he gave them. They ended up being his only friends after he went a little crazy.

    Hello Elmer Quinn!

    Yes Joan Baez song was at the end of the movie.

    It's actually a Peter Schickele song, but only sung by Baez.

    Baez = a distinctive confident voice, good choice!

    Thanks, the movie was a juxtaposition of environmental conservatism with a triple homicide and suicide and a song written by Peter Schickele and sung by the lovely Joan Baez.

    I want to see that show up in the Netflix summary page!
    LOL, it won't happen.

    On the YouTube channel, Movies, Music & Monsters, there's an episode that goes behind the scenes. Good stuff.
