Looking at Noel Black films as an allegory of the suicide of the west
Feb 1200:34:47Tap to summarizeLooking at Noel Black films as an allegory of the suicide of the westSkater Dater 1965Pretty Poison 1968Jennifer on my Mind 1971Noel Black’s Skater Dater, Pretty Poison, and Jennifer on My Mind can be read as an allegory for a culture drifting toward self-destruction: young, privileged characters with freedom, comfort, and possibility who nevertheless chase danger, alienation, and nihilism as if boredom were more intolerable than ruin. The films feel like snapshots of a civilization that has everything materially but lacks conviction, meaning, or restraint. So it experiments with its own collapse for stimulation. In that sense, Black isn’t moralizing; he’s observing a Western psyche that mistakes freedom for emptiness and, unable to articulate purpose, plays recklessly at the edge of its own undoing.
