Actually it's a Bertolucci film. It's set in spring of 1968, so a '72-'73 Dark Star would be an anachronism. I don't think it played that long in the movie, I honestly don't remember noticing it, but then the power went out in the theater and I didn't get to see the whole thing. Lots of great music in the movie that doesn't appear on the OST, like a couple of Janis songs from Cheap Thrills and Dylan's Queen Jane. -Jeff Lester
