``Look into the eyes of a chicken and you will see real stupidity. It is a kind of bottomless stupidity, a fiendish stupidity. They are the most horrifying, cannibalistic and nightmarish creatures in the world.''

Roger Ebert guessed that we are the chickens, dancing for some unknown force until the money runs out.
