Paper Roses [565761] Released: 1971-06-13 Revenue: $0 Budget: $0 Profit: $0 Runtime: 52 mins Popularity: 0.4485 Vote Average: 0 Vote Count: 0 Overview: Facing retirement, elderly journalist Clarence Hubbard reflects on the pointlessness of a life wasted writing banal tabloid human interest, animal, and crime stories. Rather than go quietly to tend roses in a garden, Hubbard begins a series of violent actions not unlike those described in tabloids, and this is heightened by inter cutting tabloid headlines between scenes. Throughout, there are occasional shots of a television critic who watches this very play as it unfolds, and he writes a negative review filled with cleverly phrased but bitter invective.
