Cicadas: "Some Freaky Bugs" (Two Lane Blacktop, 1971)

"A chance to change course arrives in the form of the Girl (Laurie Bird), a mercurial hitchhiker as forceful as she is enigmatic. Unburdened by the Driver’s angst or G.T.O.’s vanity, she acts on instinct, a creature of deeds, not thoughts. After she beds the Mechanic (thus securing herself a place in the Chevy’s backseat), a heartsick Driver tries to lay some philosophy on her. At a rural gas station, he muses aloud on the lives of cicadas, the “freaky bugs” who live most of their lives underground, emerging just long enough to mate, breed and die. It’s a bleak view of existence, wholly consistent with the movie’s stark existentialism. But the Girl rejects it out of hand, the simplest way possible, by missing the point: “We’ve got a better life, haven’t we?”" Two-Lane Blacktop By Sam Adams “The B List: The National Society of Film Critics on the Low-Budget Beauties, Genre-Bending Mavericks, and Cult Classics We Love” https://www.loc.gov/static/programs/n...
