The Emerging World of Rollerball

Published:

Rollerball

Rollerball is a 1975 American dystopian fiction film directed by Norman Jewison from a screenplay by William Harrison,[1] who adapted his own short story "Roller Ball Murder", which first appeared in 1973 in Esquire magazine.[2]

The Game

In the film, the world of 2018 is a global corporate state, containing entities such as the Energy Corporation, a global energy monopoly based in Houston which deals with nominally-peer corporations controlling access to all transport, luxury, housing, communication, and food on a global basis.

If you look forward to such a world, keep voting Republican!

Great movie, bad analysis.

I've watched the movie several times and agree with Wiki's take on it.

Everyone's entitled to their opinion, and their analysis.
