I would suggest also looking at the films that the current "generation x" grew up on, i.e. john hughes films, heathers, etc. Does a progression emerge? Also, I would avoid narrowing your conception of "generation x" - oriented films to movies that feature supposed members of the generation... you are more likely to get a full profile of the sensitivities and characteristics of a generation by studying films that they enjoy rather than films which puport to portray them. I would suggest focusing on films which seem to create somewhat of a generational response, with "x-er's" liking them wholeheartedly and other generations either disliking them or liking them with reservations... for that, I would say PULP FICTION and RESERVOIR DOGS for that matter are excellent examples. What do "X-er's" appreciate and what are they willing to overlook? Denis Hennelly
