Round 10: Tossup 12

Description NOT acceptable. In a minute-long shot, this character is beaten up by a man who had shown him a geodesic dome he had fashioned with red toothpicks. In two scenes depicting this character performing a comedy routine in which stools are whisked away just before they are sat upon, the background features posters depicting an eye in a triangle. In a birds-eye shot, this character slowly walks towards a puddle of water in the middle of a field strewn with the corpses of rabbits. Shots of turtle eggs and water spewing from a phallic stone precede an allegedly (*) unsimulated scene in which this character rapes a woman, who abandons him for a masculine-voiced woman wearing a feminine version of his outfit. Pauline Kael coined a term associated with films like Walker and Dead Man in a review of a film titled for this character, who rides with his naked son on a black horse in the desert. For 10 points, name this title (10[1])outlaw of an “acid western” (10[1])by (10[1])Alejandro Jodorowsky ■END■
