Didn't You Hear?

Kevin is despondent and walking through a hazy reality within college life. He sleeps through lectures and does not want to participate in any fraternity/sorority shenanigans. Instead, Kevin prefers to drift in and out of his escapist fantasy world, where he imagines himself and his friends as pirates sailing and exploring an uninhabitated island. ==Cast==

Music Pioneering musician Mort Garson released an album simultaneously with the film, which was the first to ever be scored entirely electronically. The title song (of both album and film), "Didn't You Hear? (feat. Tom Muncrief)" was released as a single with mild success. The film was also the first ever to feature the use of a Moog synthesizer. Distribution The film was considered a lost film for some years. During its initial premiere in Seattle, Washington, there were several snowstorms which affected cinema attendance. After a mild showing, it re-premiered the following year in scattered other Washington cities. Skip Sherwood Productions, Inc. revived the film around 1983, and it began to develop a cult following, albeit growing stronger due to its inaccessibility. In 1985, a VHS was released, after which it faded back into obscurity. There also exists an Italian version of this film, with Italian actors dubbing over the dialogue. It is unclear when that was released. ==Reception==

RareFilmm: The Cave of Forgotten Films rates it 4½ stars out of 5. Film critic John Hartl from The Seattle Times chastised its "sophomoric philosophizing", but stated that Sherwood's direction captures nice visuals, which are "sabotaged by the screenplay". ==References==
