As to “living up to my moniker”, THX1138, a fictional character in George Lucas’ first movie… I saw this film on late-night TV, I think at the age of 15, and I was greatly influenced by its message. At that unripe young age, I spotted parallels with what I saw around me, and with what I had read in other dystopian science fiction novels (I had read every science fiction and non-fiction science book in my local library by this time. The library used to call my parents to let them know that there were new books for me to read, because they knew that I had already read all their older ones.) I was greatly influenced by this film, and in later years, became aware that escaping from such an oppressive and suppressive society would be a good thing, and that the dystopian world, was in fact a reality. I liked that THX1138 actually DID escape, and he escaped to a world I knew very well, Nature. I grew up in the forest, hunting, foraging, simply hiking, camping, surviving. And I liked the possible future (which was never disclosed to us) for THX1138. I can only hope to achieve THX1138’s escape, and I would take any willing person with me, If I can ever do so.
