Movies at the Museum / Silent Running

One of the best science fiction films of the 1970s, Silent Running stars Bruce Dern as Freeman Lowell, a nature-loving crewmember aboard the Valley Forge, a gigantic spaceship that carries the last surviving forests of the Earth, which has fallen victim to overpopulation and ecological neglect. A rare science fiction film that combines bold adventure with passionate social conscience, Silent Running is a true cult classic.
