C. Larry Roberts' 1975 experimental short "I Was a Teenage Travelogue"

Utah filmmaker C. Larry Roberts passed away in 1988 at the age of 43, a talented life cut short after directing a documentary on Steven C. Stewart, the writer and star of Crispin Glover's IT IS FINE! EVERYTHING IS FINE.  Roberts' little-seen 1975 short film, now on YouTube, is an endearingly bizarre, trippy ride filled with stock footage, shots of '70s Utah and psychedelic sequences, and delivered with great tongue-in-cheek narration.
