Fantasy
On Top of the Whale
7.0/ 10
February 4, 1982
1h 37m
Overview
A parody of anthropology, linguistics, and cultural imperialism. The film follows an unlikely team of linguists into the wilds of an ersatz Patagonia to study the last speakers of a dying language. That language apparently consists of a single word, which therefore means everything.
