Warning: Spoilers
Lester's first movie. There are a number of classic video concepts seen in it, such as the use of telescopes to transform the POV along with images that evoke voyeurism in the viewer, and the use of cinematic tools to reproduce other arts, such as paintings (and more than a little bit of a mockery of formalization of the object, which is put into a facsimile in a non-genuine way, as a kind of mockery of formalism).

Music, theater. There is also the breaking of the fourth wall, from the frontal appearance of the camera at the beginning, with the staring at the camera at the end, to the final character dominating the end of the movie.

But most iconic of all is the choice of nature scenes. Back to nature, I guess! Movie Artists.

It's hard to correlate the trivial plot of the film, which is more like a spectacle re-enactment composed of a cutthroat drama.
