...theft and dissemination of confidential University materials. The Faculty has also been construed in the press, however, as deploring with virtually equal stress the Administration's response to the seizure. This I understand was not at all the intention of many participants in Friday's meeting, but the fact remains that Faculty failed to differentiate sharply and emphatically between the seizure and the Administration's response. It surely should have done...

...fault, fellows. We've let our King of the Four Letter Words out into the open, and now the news media and everybody's sister have pounced on it and stripped it of its power. The Movement, as a matter of fact, is the main culprit. It crippled the word by allowing it to become a public symbol of rebellion.

Vigo's focus on mental experience is even clearer in a subsequent sequence where the captain, swimming underwater, sees his wife's face. The shifting appearance of his objective surroundings blends with the illusion superimposed on him: his wife is present in both metaphor and fact. The film's last shot does the same through another semi-metaphor for personal experience. The couple reunited, the barge casts off, and Vigo cuts to a very high shot of the barge (from an airplane) which sweeps over it as it sails down river.
